I would like some sort of link to back that up.

Are we really arguing over 3% of their services? I have a hard time believing that.

I just remembered I posted a House and Senate report on PP. I may have to look that up.

UPDATE:
House Final Report

Senate: HUMAN FETAL TISSUE RESEARCH: CONTEXT AND CONTROVERSY

People will think he is a coward or trying to hide, or both... it's probably the wiser decision to not flaunt this.

By the way - are there any stats that back up PP's spending, since many make the claim that they provide many more services than abortion?

If PP has serving women as their top priority - continue the other services and stop abortions in states that won't pay for it.
Or he could be a coward that can't take the heat.

But I suspect you don't really want to know the truth or you would have researched it before.

yet 80% of their revenue is....

beyond that they give MILLIONS of dollars to democrat politicians every year.... millions they wouldn't have if they didn't get millions from the government.

PP is an arm of the democrat party and we should not be paying them to play politics.

There is no cut to the funding of women's health services. Just to 1 single provider that commits abortion more than any other organization, and pays democrat politicians to protect them.

its interesting how your "fact check" link states its "party lines" but only gives what they claim is wrong with the republican line. nothing at all about the democrats.


the fact is Fact Check is run by progressives. Its not a fact check at all. its a cover for progressive policy.

If they supported Republicans you'd be changing your tune

He is allowing states to take away services from poor women, maybe he should close your primary care physician.

Actually he didn't do that. He's not cutting anything but merely giving each state the power to control it's own destiny on the topic.

So many women need planned parent hood for things like contraception and screenings. Planned parenthood is not an abortion factory. I am so sick of men dictating what women can and can't do with their own health and bodies.

Yes, let's not go the route of Japan (a million older people dying every year and not being replaced) or dying Russia, where they can't get Russian women to have babies even with a gun to their heads. Russia keeps shriveling every day and Putin should talk tough??????
