Obama moves to protect Planned Parenthood funding, permanently
- 7 years ago
The Obama administration proposed a new rule preventing states from defunding Planned Parenthood or any other family planning provider for political reasons.
This will make a real difference in so many people’s lives.
Thanks to the Obama administration, women will still be able to access the birth control they need to plan their families, and the cancer screenings they need to stay healthy.
Still, politicians in 11 states voted to block public funds from Planned Parenthood because its services include abortion.
We must use the full force of Congress and the grassroots strength of the national pro-life movement to defeat this absurd rule and prevent the Obama Administration from acting unilaterally to carry out political favors and prop up a scandal-ridden abortion provider If the new Title X rule becomes permanent after a 30-day public comment period, which is likely, those states will be forced to back down from the fight.
