President Donald Trump Defunds Planned Parenthood, Will Cut Almost $60 Million in Taxpayer Funding

[Revmitchell]

The Trump administration is announcing new regulations today to partially defund Planned Parenthood and other abortion businesses of tens of millions of tax dollars. This is the second time Trump has taken steps to revoke taxpayer funding for the nation’s biggest abortion business — after yanking taxpayer from from International Planned Parenthood during his first week in office.

Wait till the judge in Hawaii hears about that.

I doubt that it will defund Planned Parenthood but it is a worthy effort.

The order would mandate that funds used for abortion services at Planned Parenthood be funded by private contributions and the money kept separate from money received from the Federal government for other women's health services.

At a minimum this would require two separate financial entities but the news article's claim that it would result in separate buildings and facilities is probably optimistic.

Still, it is a good move by Trump and an attempt at another promise kept.

Let's see if some liberal judge tries to strike it down.

His Executive Order will partially defund that killing organization - at least it's a start.

Finally found something I can thank 0bama for.
Trump is playing the 0bama trick of bypassing a reluctant/uncooperative Congress.
Presidents will be Presidents after all...

Is this money that was provided for in the Omnibus bill? I'm told the Omnibus is not a budget and that's how the President can hold the purse strings.

What means could they use to strike it down?
