Philadelphia City Council approves resolution recognizing abortion rights as human rights (Barf)

n states where abortion is legal, at least 34 clinics have closed in the past two years, citing financial and operational struggles. In September, an appeals court allowed President Donald Trump’s administration to block Medicaid funds to Planned Parenthood, putting an estimated 200 health centers at risk of closing, according to the organization.

To fill in the funding gaps, states and cities nationwide have been stepping up financially to support abortion access.

Following the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, Philadelphia granted $500,000 to the Abortion Liberation Fund of PA, a nonprofit focused on protecting and expanding abortion rights in Philly and surrounding counties. Since then, the city has designated at least half a million dollars to reproductive health.

In September 2024, the city gave $500,000 directly to Planned Parenthood, in addition to spending $450,000 in funding to address other reproductive health care rights in the city. However, when Mayor Cherelle Parker’s budget was approved in June, that funding number dropped to zero.

Councilmember Kendra Brooks criticized the city’s decision to cut the funding at a time when women’s health care rights and access are under attack in the country. Brooks serves as chair of Philadelphia’s Reproductive Freedom Task Force, a new team established in 2024.

“In our most recent budget no money was put towards reproductive care, which is definitely problematic,” Brooks said. “Especially when other cities like Chicago, Atlanta and Baltimore are stepping up with direct city funding for abortion and reproductive care, but here in Philly we can’t even get a hearing.”

Because 63% of abortion are now via the poison pill, reducing human life to sewage! Of lives that are born, devil's disciples promote gender dysphoria, and then transugery, not helping actual needy souls, as Hell hates whatever God created and ordained as good, reflective of His wisdom and majesty.
