Defunding planned parenthood, simply means not funding MEDICAL CARE for medicaid patients.....near ALL of Planned parenthood's government monies received is for the REIMBURSEMENT of medical procedures and visits by Medicaid patients and NOT A DIME, NOT A SINGLE DIME of this federal money is for reimbursement for abortions.
What a waste of time by Congress, to go out of their way to HURT PEOPLE, and prevent them from receiving medical care in the convenient locations for the many who use it....sad day indeed....
A corporation that big has a team of rock star accountants. Rainman couldn't tell you how dollars are or aren't spent
What's the purpose then?
Abortions are paid through donations,
stopping the gvt funding merely stops paying for the reimbursement for medical procedures and doctors approved through and by MEDICAID for medicaid patients.
STOPPING this medicaid reimbursement is TAKING MEDICAL TREATMENT away from these Medicaid patients, it DOES NOT STOP ONE SINGLE ABORTION, NOT A ONE.
Congress should NOT in any way, be allowed to do this to any one of these businesses and clinics that legally provides medical treatment to MEDICAID patients, for profit or nonprofit....
Abortions will continue thru donations.
But their medical care will cease.
That's stupid and foolish....and merely political posturing....that will hurt people.
