Google announces that it will place a disclosure label on health clinics that do and do not provide abortions

Google announced an update to its features regarding abortion-related inquiries and advertising on Thursday. In July, Democrat Virginia Sen. Mark Warner and Democrat Michigan Rep. Elissa Slotkin wrote Google requesting that it “improve their search results and prevent users that search for abortion clinics and services from being misled.”

Google’s vice president of government affairs and public policy, Mark Isakowitz, responded this week to the request, reported CBS News. He announced that going forward, the company will label health clinic advertisements, search results, and Google Maps listings with either “Provides abortions” or “Does not provide abortions.”
