What's going on with abortion and birth control laws in the United States?

I am out of the loop because I live in Canada. But I keep seeing all these posts on social media regarding abortion and birth control laws in the United states. Are they banning one or both of those or cutting funding for it? And more importantly why would they do this?Can someone fill me in?

Examples of 2 articles I've seen; and I've seen multiple tweets about abortion in the United states lately
