Another activist judge overstepping his authority and assuming illegal power over Congress and the President. The BBB defunded Planned Parenthood which was Congress's right to do. President Trump signed it into law on July 4 which was his right to do.
A federal judge on Monday temporarily blocked the Trump administration from enforcing a provision of President Donald Trump’s sweeping domestic policy law to defund Planned Parenthood’s health care services.
The order from US District Judge Indira Talwani, an appointee of former President Barack Obama, blocks the provision’s enforcement for 14 days. The measure would bar Medicaid users from coverage with a health care provider that also provides abortion services.
The Planned Parenthood Federation of America – along with Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts and Planned Parenthood Association of Utah – sued the administration earlier Monday, arguing that the funding ban would have devastating consequences across the country.
While the legislation, which Trump signed on Friday, does not explicitly mention Planned Parenthood, the nationwide family planning and health care provider is in its crosshairs. The law prohibits federal funding for providers “primarily engaged in family planning services, reproductive health, and related medical care” that also provide abortion.
Planned Parenthood has warned that nearly 200 clinics nationwide – which also provide birth control, STI testing and treatment, and cancer screening – could close as a result of the bill’s one-year ban on funds.
What Constitution does this judge follow that REQUIRES the federal government to give away taxpayer money to private entities??
How does a judge allocate federal funds? The dems must make up this stuff as they go along.
If this is a dupe then kill it but I could find nothing on it.
No court, not even SCOTUS, has any right to override what the elected representatives of the people have constitutional authority to do. And those representatives certainly have constitutional authority to determine how the people's money will be spent.
