Please stay on focus. The issue was federal funds that PP gets isn't used for abortions.
The federal Hyde Amendment restricts state Medicaid programs from using federal funds to cover abortions beyond the cases of life endangerment, rape, or incest.
So, white supremacist organization insists on providing services for blacks and Hispanics. That's a new one.
Abortion services. Specifically targeted to minority populations. Apparently, you didn't get the FACT memo...
Quote:
"2010 Census results reveal that Planned Parenthood is targeting minority neighborhoods. 79% of its surgical abortion facilities are located within walking distance of African American or Hispanic/Latino neighborhoods."
"An African-American woman is almost five times likelier to have an abortion than a white woman, and a Latina more than twice as likely, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."
PP targets African-American and Latina urban-area women for abortions, not low-income rural White women. That's no coincidence. Eugenics has been the focus of PP since the very beginning. Margaret Sanger was a proponent of eugenics and wished to limit the population of "undesirables."
You have been lied to. The invoice is sent to Medicaid, and if it is for mammogram etc, they pay for it, but if it is for abortion, they cannot pay it. It is as simple as that.
Nope. In NY, Medicaid pays for abortions. Taxpayer money pays for abortions. Call them and ask. I posted a link to the website:

You said (correctly) that only 3% of the services are abortions, so why would white supremacist organizations provide all those services to people they are supposed to hate?
You are not making a whole lot of sense with your rants here.
"I am on Medicaid. Will that program pay for my abortion?
NYabortion accepts New York State Medicaid only. On the day of your appoint you need to bring your current Medicaid enrollment form and at least one form of picture identification.
Yep. Taxpayer money pays for abortions. That's a violation of many taxpayers' First Amendment rights.
Whoever wants to support PP, a white supremacist organization that specifically targets minorities for abortion, or any other private organizations that provide abortion services, then donate your own money accordingly.
I already explained it, and you didn't get it, so there is no point in repeating it.
Feel free to believe anything you want.
From your link. You might want to read them before you post them:

What if I can’t pay or do not have health insurance?
Planned Parenthood participates in a federal funding program called Title X (10); a program that allows us to supplement birth control, GYN care, and other reproductive health services for women who cannot pay full price for health care services. This program does not pay for abortion care.
Just look at the outrage and cries of racism because Blacks are incarcerated at a 5 times higher rate than Whites. But target Black women for 5 times as many abortions as White women, and liberals are dancing in the streets, celebrating that fact. /SMH at all the misogynist racists on the left.
"Cash, credit card, certified check or Medicaid and/or your private insurance are the only ways to pay for abortion care at a Planned Parenthood health center in New York State."
As we have stated, the Hyde Amendment prevents tax dollars from funding abortions EXCEPT in the case of rape, incest, or mother endangerment. Although Medicaid pays for some abortions, they pay for very few because of the Hyde Amendment. But let me offer an alternative scenario. Let's say Medicaid pays for every single abortion performed in the United States. That's irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, because the procedure is LEGAL and has been legal since 1973.
Americans have moral or religious objections toward all sorts of practices. Many Americans are vegetarian. Does that mean that the SNAP program shouldn't cover meat because vegans object to the eating of animals? Or what about Jehovah's Witnesses and their objection to blood transfusions. Does that mean Medicaid shouldn't cover blood transfusions in all recipients because a minority of Christians finds the procedure objectionable?
Or what about Christian Scientists avoiding most medical treatments? Should the majority of medical treatments be refused to Medicaid and WIC patients because Christian Scientists think they will go to hell if they have them done? No. Because these medical treatments are legal. It doesn't matter how Americans feel about legal medical treatments and procedures paid with tax monies; a legal medical procedure is OK for a person to undergo because the courts and judges say that it is.
