The Trump administration stopped taxpayer dollars from going to abortion referrals at publicly funded family planning centers on Monday.
Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider, sued the administration, along with 20 states and the District of Columbia, in an attempt to stop Health and Human Services, or HHS, from diverting Title X family planning funding going to abortions. But the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, with two judges appointed by Trump, rejected the plea.
“This is a devastating blow to the 4 million patients who obtain birth control, cancer screenings, and other essential care through Title X,” the organization tweeted.
Ahead of a Tuesday HHS conference, the administration formally notified clinics that it will begin to enforce the ban on abortion referrals as well as a requirement that clinics maintain separate finances from facilities that provide abortions. Another requirement, that abortion facilities cannot be under the same roof as family planning clinics, will take effect next year.

about time - glad to see progress here; I'm sure the liberal/progressives will howl at the moon over a woman's right to choose - my response to that is simple; what is God's view on that?
ReplyDeleteThe very first lie from planned parenthood is they will not be able to provide for cancer screenings and essential care and birth control. All this rule does is keep someone from killing a member of their family, but still provide for the above mentioned services.
ReplyDeleteBut taxpayer money is not supposed to be paying for abortions in the first place. Planned Parenthood has said they don't use it for abortions and that should include referrals. PP gets a cut from referrals to abortion clinics. And the clinics get their money back from facilities that buy baby parts. It's all about money...The wrath of God is revealed from Heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men.
