How do you defund one business activity? Do you just give them money and say don't use this for abortions?

Planned parenthood decided on their own that if they couldnt use fed funding for abortion then they would withdraw from title IX. What does that tell you?

You do know PP does far more then that right? I mean if this was a stand for "morality" then you'd think the pressure would to just defund tax funded abortions. Nah instead it's to totally defund PP despite all the good that they do and no I'm not talking about abortions


You do know that PP has been defunded because they would prefer to be defunded then stop giving abortions. They are the ones that feel abortions are more important then getting government money.

It's their own fault. Even people that I know that are pro-choice cringed at the late term abortion stuff. Some of the sound clips of these people in NY actually cheering for the right to terminate in the 9th month bothered them a lot.

Pendulum swung too far to the lunatics and a lot of women that were pro-choice under certain circumstances just abandoned these idiots. There are a lot of reasonable people that said this shite has gotten totally out of hand.

And if performing these services was really that important to them, they could’ve gotten out of the abortion end of it and still kept their funding. They chose not to.

Withdrawing from Title X will not deprive Planned Parenthood of all government funding, a longtime goal of many conservatives. Figures from Planned Parenthood’s 2017-18 annual report showed that the organization received about $500 million from Medicaid, the joint federal and state health care program for low income people. Federal funds cover most of that spending.


$60 million cut, $500 million still going to them.

Still, I'll take a ~ 10% cut over the Bush clan increasing them amount of taxpayer money that went to them.

Simple - PP can set up a company that just does the 'good' stuff - and another company that does abortions.

Let the Abortion CO. survive on customer support - like all pvt organizations do.

Abortions are NOT 'women's health" ==== Abortions are "women not being responsible for their promiscuity"

PP has refused or hasn’t been able to separate abortion related expenses from other services for accounting. FF was removed for abortion related services and PP chose to decline all FF either out of principle or because they wouldn’t/couldn’t run their services separately.
