Planned Parenthood announced this week that it will withdraw from the Title X family planning program as a result of President Donald Trump's regulation, which would have required it to separate its abortion business from other health care services in order to keep getting federal funds.
By choosing abortion over taxpayer funding, Planned Parenthood proved what we have known for years – it is not a women's health organization; it's a giant abortion business.
This decision is a major victory for American taxpayers who don't want their money being used to fund the abortion industry, but there is still much work to be done.
First, without a law passed by Congress, a future president can reverse this regulation and allow Planned Parenthood to come back into the Title X program and begin receiving taxpayer money again.
Second, the Title X program represents a small portion of Planned Parenthood's taxpayer funding. The group will continue to receive other funds because Republicans in Congress have failed to defund the group legislatively.
While many Republicans will try to use this Title X victory to pretend that the problem has been solved, they need to follow the President's lead and actually fight for taxpayers.
Please send an instant message to your representatives urging them to completely defund Planned Parenthood.
Everyone knows now that Planned Parenthood is using taxpayers to fund its abortion business, and that it doesn't care about women's health. It should not receive any taxpayer money – not now, not ever.
Thank you for making your voice heard and for doing so much to help us fight for America's future.
Sincerely,
Mary Vought
