While the current #TitleX freeze doesn't yet include #PlannedParenthood of #Michigan, #PPMI's chief advocacy officer, Ashlea Phenicie, said it would amount to a loss of about $5.4 million annually, or 16% of its budget.
PPMI didn't shut down any clinics the last time the #Trump admin froze its Title X #funding. …because the funding was stopped for only about 2 years, 2019–2021, when #Biden restored it.

#PlannedParenthood Association of #Utah, where courts have blocked a near-total #abortion ban and where abortion is currently legal until 18 weeks of pregnancy, announced it will close 2 centers in May.
This spring, the #Trump admin began temporarily freezing funds to many clinics, including all #TitleX providers in #California, #Hawaii, #Maine, #Mississippi, #Missouri, #Montana & Utah, according to a KFF analysis.

#PlannedParenthood of #Illinois (a state that has become a post #RoeVWade #abortion destination) shuttered 4 clinics in March, pointing to a "#financial shortfall."
Planned Parenthood of Greater #NewYork is now selling its only #Manhattan clinic, after closing 4 clinics elsewhere in the state last summer due to "compounding financial & #political challenges."

Clinics are also bracing for the #Trump admin to again exclude them from #TitleX, the federal #funding for low- & no-cost #FamilyPlanning services, as the previous Trump admin did in 2019.
#PlannedParenthood of #Michigan (#PPMI) says the cuts are painful but necessary for the organization's long-term sustainability.

Many clinics that provide #abortion are closing, even where it’s still #legal
#PlannedParenthood of #Michigan is giving up on 4 of its #health centers, citing #financial challenges.
Including the one in #Marquette, the only clinic that provided abortion in the vast… #UpperPeninsula. For the ~1,100 patients who visited the clinic each year for anything from #cancer screenings to #contraception implants, the next-closest Planned Parenthood will now be a ~5-hr drive south.

“3 judge panel at conservative-leaning 5th Circ Court of Appeals reversed lower court ruling that #PlannedParenthood could be liable for nearly $2 billion for defrauding #Medicaid.

In possibly the most Chicagoan story of the #DNC2024, The Wieners Circle is sponsoring vasectomies and mifepristone at the #PlannedParenthood mobile clinic this week.
It’s so dang beautiful.

Are you in #Texas and live in #Travis county, #Williamson county or #Austin? Then you may be in #TX37 (district 37) and represented by democrat Rep. Lloyd Doggett (age 77), who is endangering our #democracy by urging #Biden to drop-out.
Please write to him to support Biden as the #democratic nominee and let him know the stake are too high for his shenanigans and hypocrisy. Tell him to do his job and #DefendDemocracy! - https://doggett.house.gov/zip_authentication?form=/contact

2.b. Reproductive Freedom for All - https://reproductivefreedomforall.org/contact-us/
Tell them there can be no #ReproductiveJustice if Biden doesn't win and they should withdraw their endorsement for Rep. Doggett.
Rep #BeccaBalint (VT) will introduce companion #legislation in the House, &…she said she believed #House Democratic leaders support the effort.
“I’m not going to take a watch-&-see, laissez-faire attitude,” Balint said. “We can & we have to take #Republicans at their word that they want a #FederalBan.”
The campaign has support from… #PlannedParenthood, the #ACLU & #ReproductiveFreedomForAll. The legislation…would preserve aspects of the #law that allow ofcls to crack down on child pornography.
As someone who keeps her children (born and unborn) away from data detection, I know how catastrophic the #MOMS bill’s national #pregnancy database is.
But I am also a scholar who studies #NASA, so I know a government handout bill when I see one.
Look past the website to Title II, section 1a, eligibility for government grants for maternal support.
This is a #handout for pro-life nonprofits, with restrictions against funding for orgs like #PlannedParenthood , dressed up as maternal support.
Women’s Health Clinic Bans Disabled Female Patient Over “Adult Human Female” T-Shirt
https://reduxx.info/womens-health-clinic-bans-disabled-female-patient-over-adult-human-female-t-shirt/
"A disabled Pennsylvanian woman is speaking out after Planned Parenthood Keystone dismissed her from medical treatment over what they allege are “anti-trans and transphobic” views. The woman, who uses the pseudonym Jane Lane, had been receiving healthcare at the Pennsylvania clinic for over a decade.
Lane shared a letter she says she received from Trish Tashjian, the Chief Operating Officer of Planned Parenthood Keystone on April 11.
“To ensure the highest level of patient care, I want to inform you that Planned Parenthood Keystone will no longer be available to serve you as your healthcare provider, effective 4/11/2024,” Tashjian wrote.
“The dismissal from services is due to repeated offensive conversations and symbols that contradict our commitment to creating an inclusive and compassionate environment for both staff and patients. Numerous complaints from staff members have been received, and a recent complaint from a patient regarding your anti-trans and transphobic rhetoric and symbols has been brought to our attention. Resources below are recommendations for choosing a new healthcare provider. We will be available to see you in case of medical emergencies until 5/10/2024. We will transfer your medical records to your new healthcare provider upon receipt of a signed authorization to do so.”
The letter was initially shared on X by @ttexulansic, who also included photos of the shirts Lane had occasionally worn to her appointments. Among the shirts were those with slogans “Make Women Female Again”; “Woman: Adult Human Female”; and “100% Natural Woman, Female Original.”
But Lane says she witnessed a Planned Parenthood staff member with yellow and purple hair wearing similarly politicized t-shirts and jewelry, including a “smash the gender binary” pin and “they/them” pronoun earrings.
Lane has revealed that Planned Parenthood Keystone cancelled an upcoming medical appointment and barred her from booking further appointments online. She also alleged that she received zero warning, that no attempt was made to accommodate her beliefs prior to her termination, and that no official Planned Parenthood policy documents were provided or explained to her.
Lane suffers from several health diagnoses, including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and had been accessing the clinic for birth control injections for the past decade.
In an email with Reduxx, Lane described how she had conversations about “men in women’s prisons, sports, and locker rooms” while she was at the clinic, but added that she hadn’t intended to offend anyone. She said that she even apologized to staff for sharing “gross information” after talking about genital surgeries performed on transgender identified men and women on a single occasion.
She denied being transphobic, adding that her concerns about gender ideology had to do with the safeguarding of women and children.
“I am absolutely terrified of men in women’s spaces, the erosion of women’s rights, and the abuse of children that is all being done under the name of trans,” said Lane.
Lane is now seeking legal advice. She said she is thankful to have been able to find alternate healthcare after being fired as a patient from Planned Parenthood Keystone.
According to their website, “The mission of Planned Parenthood Keystone is to provide and promote access to the essential reproductive health care services and comprehensive sexuality education people need to live healthy lives and build strong communities.” There are no policies about inclusion or patient conduct on the site.
Planned Parenthood Keystone has not responded to a request for comment at the time of publication."
