Many of the allegations that were being made was because many of the audio and video footage that was released proved that they are taking advantage of the funding to Planned Parenthood. With this evidence there’s enough proof to defund Planned Parenthood.
On the Susan B. Anthony List website there was also information provided that there was footage released by Lila Rose Live Action showed Planned Parenthood willing to aid and abet in acknowledged human sex trafficking of girls as young as 14 (Susan B. Anthony List). With this information we have an specific person from the clinic caught on footage aiding illegal activities that isn’t supposed to happen in the clinic because they’re supposed to aid help and support not aid illegal activities

Again many of the patients and democrats are scared that many people would lose the health care they receive if Planned Parenthood is defunded again not thinking about the abortion allegations.
With the defunding of Planned Parenthood the government is able to save money. Steven Ertelt wrote in his article that a congressional report shows that defunding Planned Parenthood clinics for 1 year can save the federal government $235 million (Ertelt). The defunding of Planned Parenthood would be beneficial in general to the government because they are able to save millions of dollar within one year. Even though it is believed that it would cost money to defund Planned Parenthood there is a report showing how much can be saved easily by even defunding for one

DFLA mentioned on their website that they want to change the government’s funding for women 's healthcare from Planned Parenthood to Community Health Centers, which allows more preventative care (DFLA). Since there are 9,000 Community Health Centers sites across the country and almost every single Congressional district has at least one center. With the 700 Planned Parenthood facilities they can provide fuller services to families. The Community Health Centers can still give women access to the services and support that are needed for them (DFLA). Instead of families worrying about the defunding Planned Parenthood there’s many Community Health Centers that could still provide services to
One of the most effective and crucial programs for women’s health is currently under attack by the so-called president of the United States, Donald Trump. In an attempt to convince the people that he is willing to stand up for everyone, including the unborn, but instead, Mr. Trump is oppressing women and taking away their rights as human beings. Without Planned Parenthood, 2.5 million men and women would be left without affordable, high-quality health care. One in five women have visited a Planned Parenthood in their lifetime. The fact that all of the care and help Planned Parenthood gives can all be lost due to something as petty as abortion services is almost laughable.
Resources that could provide them with valuable information to prevent serious health issues. I am concerned about taking away their funding because it would leave low-income
One of the author’s reasoning for how taking away ACA would affect Medicaid is back in 2016 legislation tried to step away from it, but former President Barack Obama repealed it because could eventually affect the lives of millions of people. The authors also cover how ACA changed Medicaid for the better, for example creating a program for just children’s coverage, inventing a new method to determine eligibility, and even creating new benefit options for families and small businesses. The author describes how the new Presidential administration can repeal or alter Medicaid through Section 1115. The authors main argument is that by repealing ACA would eliminate the Medicaid system which in turn will allow millions of people to be
It is vital that Congress change course so that these, as well as similar programs, be expanded. In particular, we need to protect federal funding for Planned Parenthood, which provides important preventive services for women such as mammograms and conception. In Maryland, more than 40,000 people rely on Planned Parenthood for health care every year and thousands of Maryland students receive an accurate and complete education about reproductive health from Planned Parenthood educators.4 The recent attacks on Planned Parenthood show just how far some will go to prevent women from taking control of their health and well-being. In Congress, I will fight against Republican efforts to defund Planned Parenthood, and I will never let the government come between a woman and her doctor.
To qualify and receive Medicaid, one of the criteria’s are to be poor and pregnant, which is also state funded. The funding cut from Planned Parenthood, will be used in other areas involving female medical services. Some are also wondering what
Imagine the long-term savings realized by communities around the country, produced by cutting over inflated Planned Parenthood
I am a social work student at Frostburg State University and I have completed a policy analysis on the defunding of Planned Parenthood. I oppose defunding of Planned Parent because I believe it serves a good purpose in communities. Defunding of Planned Parenthood would remove all federal funding and allow states to take away state funding from them. Without the 500 million dollar yearly funding that Planned Parenthood receives they will have to shut down a numerous amount of their clinics and many of the nine million clients will not have anywhere to go to for preventive and family planning services. In 2012, Texas stopped funding Planned Parenthood with state aid.
For years republicans have been trying to defund Planned Parenthood, and at this moment in history, they are closer towards their goal than ever. With a republican majority senate, and a republican as president, the fight to defund Planned Parenthood only faces minimal resistance. Republicans, more specifically the Trump Administration, like to hide behind their religious beliefs and values when it comes to their ideas regarding Planned Parenthood. They tend to only focus aspects that they disagree with while paying no mind to the good that Planned Parenthood does. These republicans that are working to defund Planned Parenthood and oppose Planned Parenthood so strongly tend to only focus on the belief that defunding Planned Parenthood would
Planned Parenthood is able to provide these free services because of the 500 million dollars they receive from government funding yearly. Planned Parenthood has two main offices; one in New York and one in Washington D.C. but has health centers all over the country. The Planned Parenthood Action Fund has many pros and cons; it is a controversial policy due to how much money they receive from the government and where it goes, and it is also a heated topic for many Democrats and Republicans; many Republican presidential candidates, like Ted Cruz and Carly Fiorina, want to defund and get rid of Planned Parenthood Action Fund. Whether to keep funding or to defund the program is a problem considered by people and politicians and there are many reasons for both
By being a provider and educator, the organization has created a reputation as a safe, reliable source that many individuals can depend on for their health. Nearly 4 of 10 Americans are reliant on such programs and up to 25% of Planned Parenthood patients would be completely without medical insurance if the organization was defunded. Defunding Planned Parenthood was an effort put into effect in Texas of 2011 where it proved to be disastrous for both healthcare providers and their patients. The two-year budget for Planned Parenthood was cut from $111 million to $38 million, which resulted in 82 clinics closing, reduced services and supplies, and ultimately an upcharge for what was available. This resulted in a 36% decrease in IUDs and other implants and a 31% decrease in injectable contraceptives, all because it was limited, too expensive, or too difficult to receive (Willingham).
Planned Parenthood is a National issue fighting for abortion access, giving women facing an unintended pregnancy must have access to safe, legal abortion services. Birth control and the fact all people deserve access to birth control and other preventive care, health care equality and the idea all people should have equal access to reproductive health care. For years politicians in Congress and statehouses across the country have attacked Planned Parenthood’s patients’ access to care. But I believe Planned Parenthood’s health centers provide high quality, affordable reproductive health care, to 2.4 million people across the country. When politicians talk about defunding Planned Parenthood, they really mean depriving patients who depend on public
I still remember the first Time I stood before a Planned Parenthood clinic for a few hours to support the right to life. I personally have performed many protesting actions against abortion. I have picketed in front of Planned Parenthood.gone to pro-life masses. attended numerous right to life conferences, and other pro-life actions. I do these things to support my beliefs, and extend support to those who are confused and considering abortion.
Recently, along with President Donald J Trump's inauguration, women have come together to protest his said attemps to end plan-parenthood and abortions. On January 21st, 2017, women and men have set up a protest march in attempt to keep the planned parenthood program that ObamaCare helps to cover, and that the Republicans want to defund, and keep abortions a choice for the women. Purposely, this march was set up one week before the 'March of Life'. The March of Life is an anti-abortion
1 out of 5 every 5 American women have visited a PPH at least once, Which is a big number of women if you think about it. Many will oppose me and bring up how we should defund planned parenthood because they still perform abortions which, in religious terms, is morally wrong. But defunding Planned Parenthood threatens millions of men and women's chances of any health care. It also won't stop abortions, it will encourage the practice of at-home abortions or them being performed by someone who isn't licensed. The money Planned Parenthood gets from the government doesn't even go towards abortions.
Susan G. Komen (SGK) is one of the most influential non-profit organizations in terms of its effort in championing their cause. We have been given the task to help rebuild their image, and offer our recommendations on how to regain public trust and support. After the defunding of Planned Parenthood (PP) and its mismanagement of dissemination of information and response, the question that strikes us was why Planned Parenthood responded to the news and actions of SGK negatively. Despite the fact that it is true, that PP was under federal investigation for mismanagement of funds. Based on the knowledge we gain from analyzing scholarly article, video recommendations and records of communication between SGK, PP and the public, our group propose
