Donald Trump Signs Bill Allowing States To Cut Off Funds For Planned Parenthood

By Theodore Shoebat

Donald Trump just signed a bill which allows states to cut off federal funding for organization that provide abortions, including Planned Parenthood. As we read in one report:

President Donald Trump privately signed a bill on Thursday that allows states to withhold federal money from organizations that provide abortion services, including Planned Parenthood, a group frequently targeted by Republicans.

The bill, which the usually camera-friendly President signed without any media present, reverses an Obama-era regulation that prohibited states from withholding money from facilities that perform abortions, arguing that many of these facilities also provide other family planning and medical services.
