Ohio Passed a law in 2016 “forbidding the state from sending preventive health funding to any organization, or affiliate of an organization, that “performs or promotes” non-therapeutic abortions.” A court upheld the law last week. Public funding ends April 20th.

Planned Parenthood is, of course, claiming this will hurt minority women. Ohio is putting politics before people. And that this will impact life-saving healthcare?
Can anybody explain why women in need of Life-Saving Health Care ™ are going to Planned Parenthood?
And when was anything Planned Parenthood did not about politics before people? Babies are people. They kill them every day. They even try to abort them in ways that will allow them to sell viable tissues and transplant organs.
Suggesting this practice is unethical or barbaric is always attacked as political.
One more point. Planned Parenthood is still a private multi-billion-dollar international business. If health care is at risk, it can just replace the funding form its pile of cash. It would be a fraction of a drop in their combined local and national Lobbying, political advocacy, and Democrat campaign support budget.
Democrat women should be clamoring to donate those campaign donations to these clinics?
That is, of course, if actual “women’s health care” really is more important than the politics of “women’s health care.”
