President Donald Trump’s effort to defund the abortion giant Planned Parenthood is being challenged by 22 states in a series of lawsuits announced Monday.
The first lawsuit, filed by California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, asks the U.S. District Court in San Francisco to block the new Title X rule before it goes into effect, the Washington Post reports. A second lawsuit, representing 21 states including Oregon, is expected Tuesday, according to The Hill.
Title X funds help low-income women and men receive birth control, cancer screenings and other health care services. While the tax money cannot be used to pay for abortions, it indirectly funds Planned Parenthood’s vast abortion business.
Last week, the Trump administration finalized a new Title X rule that requires health care entities to completely separate abortion from their taxpayer-funded services. Planned Parenthood, which receives about $60 million annually through the program, already has said it will not comply. Entities have 120 days to financially separate their family planning and abortion operations and one year to physically separate their family planning and abortion operations.

PP can get all of the private donations they want. Keep my tax dollars out of their pockets.
Democrats: killing babies is just part what they do, who they are, and they want to do what they do with tax money
look at all these cheap-butt states that won’t fund their own abortion programs. Better to have the govt to blame for funding/notfunding abortions instead of being held personally accountable in their own states?
Pure evil
Becerra just wants to make sure all the Gringas are killing their kids.
Easier for the Reconquista that way.
F 22 states’ leadership and the donkey they rode in on...
What percentage of these funds are used to kill black babies? What is the percentages of black abortions to white?
Interesting statistic: PP kills 900 babies a day ...
My guess would be 60-40 black/white, but blacks are only <20% of the population.
Just look at that list.
The EVIL States of America.
22 states is depressingly high number. PP is just a vile evil entity and we have almost half of the states suing to stop any decrease in tax money going to these baby killers.
About half the abortions are of black children. Blacks are about 12-13% of the population. They are the primary targets for Planned Parenthood. Others are secondary or simply collateral damage in the effort to kill blacks.
Apart from the Combined Federal Campaign (donations from Federal employees’ wages), what money do they get?
Research grants?
It’s been established that they don’t really provide medical services - surely they don’t get Medicaid money?
But PP is able to contribute 33 million dollars annually to Democrats. Hmmmmm
No wonder they want those Federal funds!
Every time someone says “God bless America” I think, Why would He do that?
