** *Statement from the Press Secretary Regarding the Proposed Title X Family Planning Program Rule from the Department of Health and Human Services*
The Administrations announcement today of a proposed rule on Title X family planning program fulfills President Donald J. Trumps promise to continue to improve womens health and ensure that Federal funds are not used to fund the abortion industry in violation of the law.
The President is pleased to support the proposed rule from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which would update the regulations governing the Title X family planning program. This important proposal would ensure compliance with the programs existing statutory prohibition on funding programs in which abortion is a method of family planning.The new proposed rule would not cut funds from the Title X program. Instead, it would ensure that taxpayers do not indirectly fund abortions. Contrary to recent media reports, HHSs proposal does not include the so-called gag rule on counseling about abortion that was part of the Reagan Administrations Title X rule.
