(Worthy News) – Nearly 900 clinics that either perform abortions or promote them have lost federal funding under a new Trump administration rule that prevents family planning clinics receiving taxpayer money from promoting or referring for abortion, according to a new report.
At issue is money under Title X, a federal family planning program that funds cancer screenings, contraceptives and pregnancy tests for low-income individuals.
Power to Decide, a pro-choice organization that works to prevent unplanned pregnancies, says in a new report that 876 clinics across the country have lost funding. Among them are clinics tied to Planned Parenthood, which announced in August it would forgo federal funding rather than abide by the rule. [ Source: Christian Headlines (Read More…) ]
