After more than a year of delays, Texas is officially kicking Planned Parenthood out of the states Medicaid program.
In a move that could affect thousands of low-income women, state health officials on Tuesday delivered a final legal notice to defund the organization from the Medicaid program through which it provides family planning and womens health services to the poor. Planned Parenthood had previously received $3.1 million in Medicaid funding, but those dollars will be nixed in 30 days, according to the notice which was obtained by The Texas Tribune.
That cut-off day will only be delayed if the organization appeals the state's decision in the next 15 days by requesting an administrative hearing with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission. But Planned Parenthood officials say they will instead turn to the courts to block the cuts.
“But, unless there ARE abortions, were all on the hook for these b@stard children for the entirety of THEIR natural lives...and only RARELY do we get one that ends up being a productive member of Society, versus being a drag on Society.”
No matter. Every baby has a right not to be killed.
A court room is a wonderful place to make all the PP lawbreaking allegations public in a very high profile manner
Let’s hope they have enough time to list them all.
“In a move that could affect thousands of low-income women”
Wow! All of those poor low-income murderous women!
What will become of them and their deeds? /s
“Stop the money flow.”
That’s the only way to do it. Cut off their means of enablement and watch the behavior slowly disappear.
They will starve or get a job - either is fine by me.
After all of the information that has come out of this organization selling fetal parts for profit this entire organization should not receive a dime of taxpayer money.
Oh, I always opt for LIFE. But, has anyone crunched the numbers? Just what DO all of these extra, unproductive kids cost We The People, since Mother Government is ready, willing and able (on our dime) to pick up their expenses?
Is it cheaper in the long run to fund abortions through PP, or to take care of these offspring from birth to death (as Mother Government seems to prefer) up to and including their prison time? Who BENEFITS from that other than states with HUGE Federally funded Prisons?
Like, Um...Wisconsin?
Would tax dollars be better spent on advocating for adoption (I NEVER see that, anywhere!), or permanent sterilization if you’re generationally stuck in the welfare cycle? (Another preference of mine, actually.)
I don’t know. Who does? Do you? I mean, the easy way is to advocate for life, but that ‘life’ costs a lot of dollars when that ‘life’ has no nuclear family, community or church to support it. Add to that, the lack of SHAME that goes with any of this. Having a pack of kids with different ‘fathers’ isn’t anything that’s looked down upon.
Thanks, Democrats!
Again, I don’t have any definitive answers. We have this conversation at home All. The. Time. Our town can hardly deal with the unwanted PETS dropped off at the Humane Society (which we both volunteer and donate to).
Puppy and Kitty Lives Matter! Babies? Seems that Society, as a whole, declines to tackle THAT one.
*SHRUG*
Let me know when they kick islam out of Texas. The immediate evil. Stopping the pinching off of welfare cases hardly compares to the threat of islam.
AMEN!
“Who does? Do you?”
I know that every baby has an absolute, God-given right not to be killed.
You are correct that the left has messed things up six ways from Sunday, and those issues should be addressed.
However, that right not to be killed that we all possess is simply not negotiable.
And Planned Parenthood will help him with the abortion afterwards?
And since Planned Parenthood is known to help people cross state lines to obtain their services that are being funded and supported fraudulently, they’re very possibly running afoul of human trafficking laws, too. Somebody needs to take a look at that.
What a lot of them do is work a job that pays cash under-the-table. The welfare pays their living expenses and the job is party money.
Diana ‘accidents’ rarely happen.....
.....the schools refuse to teach abstinence in their sex education classes and have been promoting the approved Planned Parenthood curriculum instead for decades
....iow, get em pregnant....get em aborted
TV, movies, celebrities, politicians approve and promote sex .......and abortion
Most young girls indeed know where babies come from and how they get there.......those girls, in most part, aren’t the blushing, genteel, strictly guided little ladies fron the 50’s
No dearie, these are not ‘accidents’......they are are youngsters living in a ‘ no consequence’ world generally without Judeo Christian foundation.
No guidelines......just a ‘if it feels good, do it’
putting Texas on notice
Whatever that is supposed to mean.
Obama is done insignificant and will go down in the history books in a neck and neck race with Carter as the crappiest POTUS.
I liked Newts summary of his legacy to a ballon rapidly deflating
Figuring it out......”shame these adults who keep opening their legs cannot”
Sad fact is they figured it out long ago..legs open is an ATM machine of the hood
You reveal yourself in this statement to be a Malthusian at heart, and merely a conservative of opportunity, rather than principle.
Hi Diana.
Children can be adopted. That way we are not on the hook for them: they can grow into useful members of society.
We don’t have to regard wholesale murder as the only alternative.
very true
