President Trump signed a bill Thursday freeing states to withhold federal family planning grant money from Planned Parenthood, marking the first major pro-life legislation to be signed into law in more than a decade.
The bill unravels an Obama-era regulation that insisted states couldnt refuse to spend family planning money with Planned Parenthood or any other organization that performs abortions.
This is a major pro-life victory, said House Speaker Paul D. Ryan.
More than a dozen states moved to strip Planned Parenthood of government funding in recent years as questions arose about the countrys largest abortion provider. In particular, lawmakers in Republican-led states were reacting to a series of undercover videos that purported to show Planned Parenthood officials negotiating the sale of body parts from aborted fetuses.

Thanks.
If PP wants money they can get it from those rich celebrity pro baby killers..they dont need Govt funding
Yeah Im well aware of these “Important medical exams” they are called abortions..everyone knows that the main reason why a woman goes to PP is to get an abortion
Bump!
Give it a rest
For him to become the BEST Republican President in the History of the United States he will agree to every Conservative cause that makes Conservatives happy!
There will be alot of WINNING in TRUMP's Presidency!
“No, its the poor Trump detractors that cant find anything to be happy about.”
He’s done lots of stuff that I am happy about. I am especially happy that he is moving forward with the wall and with deportations. I am happy that his election has brought many border crashers to self deport.
I do wish that he had used his magic wand to do everything on January 20th, but, oh well. Into every life a little winning must fall.
HE PROMISED HE’D USE HIS MAGIC WAND LAST YEAR.
THIS IS A 180!!!!!
/s
LOL
Thanks for the note. People are so funny.
This guy has done more for our cause than I ever dreamed one guy would again. Amazing.
Thanks Strac6
No purporting about it, they absolutely negotiated the prices.
Agreed, you couldn’t be more right. Ghouls, all of them.
Fox radio may have reported that, but there are other women’s clinics out there that don’t do abortions, yet still provide birth control and many other actual women’s health care exams. So I am very happy about this development!
Winning.
So do I.
And some two bit Federal District Judge will strike it down in a heartbeat, and Trump will probably go along with that just like every other GOP goofball in the swamp. He has already shown no stomach for the fight in limiting judicial tyranny. Gorsuch was Grand, maybe, but it was more important for him to tell the Fedjudge who struck down his immigration order to go pound sand.
Love it, DoughtyOne!
Thank you, President Trump!
I hear you but this was a bill, not an EO and it restored states rights.
