Performs or facilitates abortion, makes or dispenses abortion-inducing drugs, funds abortion providers, or pays for employees to travel to obtain an abortion.

1. Performs abortionsCoreFails USCCB · I.1

   Hospitals, clinics and telehealth services that carry out abortions.

   Why this fails. Carrying out abortions is direct participation in abortion (Policy I.1).

   No companies in our data yet.

2. Makes, sells or dispenses abortion drugsSignificantFails USCCB · I.1

   Including abortifacients, and pharmacies that dispense the abortion pill.

   Why this fails. Making or supplying materials produced or marketed for abortion is direct participation (Policy I.1).

   In our data: CVS Health Perrigo

3. Pays for employees’ abortion travelSignificantFails USCCB · I.1

   Reimbursing travel, lodging or other costs so that employees can obtain an abortion.

   What the bishops say. Policy I.1 of the USCCB’s Socially Responsible Investment Guidelines (2021): the USCCB will not invest in any company whose activities include “direct participation in or support of abortion.”

   Why this fails. A travel benefit pays for the trip that makes an abortion possible. That is material support of abortion, not only an opinion about it, so the company fails our USCCB screen. Statements, lobbying and sponsorships pay for no abortion; we flag those for engagement under Policy I.2 instead.

   Through a fund. Owning a broad fund that holds such a company is more remote than owning the company itself. Your report shows the two separately, and the choice is yours to discern.

4. Funds abortion providers or abortion fundsSignificantFails USCCB · I.1

   Corporate donations or company funds that pay for abortions or support abortion providers.

5. Advocacy, sponsorships and legal-fee pledgesLimitedUSCCB: engage · I.2

   Public statements, lobbying or pledges that support abortion access without paying for abortions.

   Why it is flagged. Support that pays for no abortion is, in our reading, a tangential connection: the guidelines call for engagement rather than divestment (Policy I.2).
