I see you have been reading the usual Life News ploy, "PP is redundant". The very last thing you would want to do is toy with inner city family planning services in places like Chicago or Baltimore.
I posted the publicly-funded FP clinics for a low-income Chicago zip code. There are 17. PP is redundant and unnecessary.

Let's not make believe that the house bill has anything to do with reducing cost, Family Planning accounts for a fractional part of Medicaid Funding. Besides if redundancy is their concern wouldn't it be logical to look at all FP clinics, they didn't.
Additionally poor women chose PP clinics for whatever reason, but now congress is going to close them not having any idea of the result. That makes absolutely no sense.

Why shouldn't a public health department clinic facility rather than a white supremacist private organization be given tax $$$?
Look, I get it, you're fond of PP. But supporting a white supremacist organization is on YOU.

I just think it's foolish to disrupt the lives of low income women, family planning should be common ground but the GOP is doing it's best to screw that up.

Spare me your racist BS. There are 17 publicly-funded FP clinics within a 10 mile radius of the center of a low-income Chicago zip code, compared to only 16 PP facilities in the entire state of Illinois. Easy to tell which is redundant and unnecessary.
Besides, if you want to support a white supremacist private organization that specifically and purposely targets Blacks and Hispanics for abortion, that's on YOU.
Look at the facts. According to the CDC, Black and Hispanic women are 5 times and 2 times more likely, respectively, to have an abortion than White women. And then look at where 79% of PP's Surgical Abortion Facilities are located: within walking distance of Black and/or Hispanic neighborhoods. They're targeted for abortion, no doubt about it.
If you're good with supporting a white supremacist organization, that's on you.
If you're good with believing that Planned Parenthood is a racist organization, that's on you!
That's exactly what will happen. Blue states need to build a wall.

funny how so many forget that when it suits them.
OK....so, please explain how not forcing me to fund your abortion with my tax dollars equals tyranny.

Facts are facts. 79% of PP's Surgical Abortion Facilities are located within walking distance of minority neighborhoods, and minorities have a disproportionately high rate of abortion.
If you don't realize you're supporting a white supremacist organization, you're blind.
