In another major pro-life victory, Planned Parenthood said it will shut down its clinics in Louisiana Sept. 30 after losing access to federal funding under President Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill.”
While Planned Parenthood is barred from performing abortions in Louisiana, the organization has been a key player in directing patients to receive out-of-state abortions, The Hill reported.
Pro-life advocates praised the shutdown as a decisive blow to the abortion industry’s influence in the state.
Gov. Jeff Landry, a Republican, said on X that he has “fought hard as Attorney General and now as Governor to rid our state of this failed organization.”
He added, “Abortion should NEVER be considered healthcare.”
In an Aug. 4 statement, Benjamin Clapper, executive director of Louisiana Right to Life, called the shutdown a “victory for life” and thanked “those who have prayed, worked, and given tirelessly to make this day a reality.”
“Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry are leaving Louisiana,” he said. “But the pro-life movement is here to stay. We will always love and serve both mom and baby.”
Louisiana’s shutdown follows a series of Planned Parenthood closures across the country.
Planned Parenthood said on social media that the “Big Beautiful Bill” could force up to 200 clinic closures nationwide over the next year, CatholicVote previously reported.
Last month, Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast announced it would shut down two Houston clinics — including what was formerly the largest abortion facility in the US — citing rising expenses and staff shortages. Planned Parenthood of Great Texas closed its Tyler location and plans to shift to “telehealth” services in the region, CatholicVote reported.
According to LifeNews, Louisiana’s closures bring the total number of Planned Parenthood shutdowns this year to 40.

Oh no! Now who will kill our babies for us?
Just think of the number of American children who will not be murdered in the dark claws of “damockrazy”-loving, DemonRATS.
Fauci’s wife? Or perhaps Match.com will pair them up!!
I’m sure HELL has a Lamborghini!! Bucket seats! Filled with fire!
There’s no telling what Dr. Evil Fauci might do next.
He’s only killed 7+ million people so far....
It might slow abortions down somewhat, but I don’t doubt the libtards will just go elsewhere, and there are always unscrupulous doctors available. I really don’t understand why birth control isn’t used more often, it’s pretty cheap and for many free. There is no need to get pregnant if you don’t want a baby.
Evil. Praise God!
