It would be funny if it made sense. It's against the law for a state to tell someone on Medicaid, which licensed provider they can't use. So the joke is on those who bought into the tortured logic of that Town Hall opinion. It's just another case of the right wing taking away women's choices.
Are you saying the state has no say in who is qualified?
Sure, and Planned Parenthood clinics are legally licensed in the state of Texas. Their physicians are board certified.
Texas doesn't require board certification, and Planned Parenthood generally only does screening and referrals, especially in rural areas of Texas. Personally, I doubt they got much money even before Texas cut them off.
