S.C. Gov. Henry McMaster issues executive order cutting off state, local money from abortion clinics

Triggering praise, criticism and some confusion, Gov. Henry McMaster issued an executive order Friday cutting off all public funding to health care providers affiliated with abortion clinics in South Carolina.

In the order, he also directed the South Carolina Medicaid agency to seek permission from the federal government to exclude abortion clinics from the state's Medicaid provider network.

"There are a variety of agencies, clinics, and medical entities in South Carolina that receive taxpayer funding to offer important women's health and family planning services without performing abortions," McMaster said in a press release about the order.

Hope he redirects that money to get old sparky back up and running so we can rid this earth of those that surrendered their right to life when they took some else's.
