The Department of Health and Human Services said its new regulation will restore the federal family planning program to the way it ran under the Obama administration, when clinics were able to refer women seeking abortions to a provider.
Known as Title X, the taxpayer-funded program makes available more than $250 million a year to clinics to provide birth control and basic health care services mainly to low-income women. Under former President Donald Trump, clinics were barred from referring patients for abortions, prompting a mass exit by service providers affiliated with Planned Parenthood, as well as several states and other independent organizations.
In 2018, the family planning clinics served about 3.9 million clients, but HHS estimates that number fell by nearly 40% after the Trump policy. The upheaval may have led to more than 180,000 unintended pregnancies, the agency said. Restrictive state laws in Texas, Mississippi and elsewhere have prompted a mobilization by abortion rights supporters, who fear a conservative-leaning Supreme Court will overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion nationally. Hundreds of abortion-themed protests were held around the country Saturday, including one that brought thousands of abortion rights supporters to the steps of the court.

These signs are So interesting…”My body my choice” “My body, my business”, but the other body involved (the unborn innocent defenseless child) no one cares about protecting, so choice and privacy matter…unless it’s about an ineffective jab, right?
Hey Joe you keep talking about all the money China spends on infrastructure. Guess what Joe, they make most of their money off you and the fact they don’t give money away like we do
Saying the government supports abortion is like saying the government supports murder by allowing the sale of guns? 🤔🤔..but we don't want to have that discussion on the GOP...do we?🤫🤫

You women fight for the right to murder babies. How about you don’t get pregnant to begin with. News flash it’s NOT your body or you would be the one dead. You all will answer to this evil one day.
Your body your business we got that. Then shouldn't you also be responsible of not conceiving in the first place? Or are you going to throw that responsibility to the government as well. Grow up people if you can't control yourself face the consequence.
My body my choice….except for Covid shot 😂😂😂
May you spend eternity regretting your abortion.
Start acting like a majority TheDemocrats
Black abortions are at 3 times (per capita) more than white abortions. Is this because blacks are more frequently encouraged to abort pregnancies than whites by 'referrals'.
SINFUL - COMPLICIT IN MURDERING BABIES.
Yes, My Body My Business, but not just abortion, about vaccines, about all drugs and treatments, about going to work without nobody locking us out. When you fight for freedom, you fight for it all.
