Trump Freezes Funding to Planned Parenthood

Planned Parenthood performs abortions.

Why do taxpayer dollars fund Planned Parenthood? Our hard-earned money shouldn't be AT ALL. A no brainer.

Is President Donald Trump now freezing Planned Parenthood's funding?

Fox News reports, "President Donald Trump's administration told several Planned Parenthood affiliates on Monday that it was withholding funding due to possible violations of civil rights laws, according to reports."

The story continued, "Politico reported that tens of millions of dollars were being withheld from Planned Parenthood clinics that provide low-income Americans services like contraception, STI testing and other health services."

"On Monday, nine state affiliates of Planned Parenthood that receive money from the federal government through Title X, a family planning program, got notices saying their funding was being 'temporarily withheld," Fox News noted.

According to the administration, Planned Parenthood was ignoring the president's executive orders.

"The publication said that the letter, which was provided by Planned Parenthood, pointed toward 'possible violations' of Trump’s executive orders – like the banning of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs – and federal civil rights laws," the report added.

Conservatives couldn't be more pleased.

Notices sent.

"Treats women like cattle."

YES!

Defund it for good.

They shouldn't be getting one penny of taxpayer dollars.

America voted for this.

Winning! (for the absolute best of reasons).
