Planned Parenthood said it will pull out of a federal family planning grant program rather than stop referring patients for abortions

Planned Parenthood made good Monday on months of threats to pull out of the federal family planning program rather than comply with a new Trump administration rule barring federally funded clinics from referring patients to abortion providers.

The decision marks a partial victory for Republican lawmakers who have been trying to defund the organization. But while Planned Parenthood gets about $60 million a year under Title X, it receives far more from Medicaid. It also gets funding from other federal and state programs to combat HIV and provide sexual education to teenagers.

PPFA has a whole list of fake PACS and phony 501c3 to get funding needed for their murdering agenda.

Bye bye death dealing factories

Let Soros & rich liberals put their money where their mouth is...use private funding, not government tax dollars. Problem solved. ezpz

MalcolmNance Planned Parenthood was critical for me as a college student when it came to reproductive health. They serve more than just low-income women. And their health services are not limited to abortions. Beyond shameful to deprive this excellent organization of caregivers Title X funds.

PPFA lets all donate $20.20

I'm not concerned That means they expect patient can pay out of pocket. And I'm sure money has been raised by the left do-gooders for this funding as well. This might just decrease the cost of an abortion (Years ago when I was researching it costed $800. In India, it was $50

They should be privately funded.

Awesome.

ok

Hope they go out of business. No more money to Planned Parenthood baby killers.

Well, that's what you get when you put abortion ahead of helping low income people.

'pull out'

Odd that they’d stop receiving federal grants to help women over something that is only 3% of their business...

It's almost like they see themselves solely as abortion providers and not healthcare or family planning providers 🤔

Strong and independent don’t need no Uncle Sam and male net taxpayers. Your body your choice? You pay for it

Abortion is a human right.

Saving more lives. Thank you and God Bless potus

The new Trump administration rule — effective midnight — says federally funded clinics must stop referring patients for abortions or get kicked out of the federal Title X program (and potentially forfeit millions of 💰 in federal grants)
