Alabama Resumes Funding Planned Parenthood

His insistence comes in spite of efforts by pro-choice activists to shut down the probe by citing last week’s fatal shootings at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado.

“Enough is enough”, the letter said. Some conservatives have said they’d support such a showdown. Seven other states have declined to investigate the claims in the videos.

He also brushed aside suggestions that Republican rhetoric criticizing the organization had played any role in encouraging attacks on Planned Parenthood.

Trump described the “tremendous dislike” he sees for Planned Parenthood on the campaign trail.

Those amendments are nearly certainly nonstarters with Democrats, and they’re unlikely to be part of a final spending package.

He also drew a comparison between shootings and abortions.

Though women in Alabama, and the rest of the country, will continue to receive Planned Parenthood care covered by Medicaid, at what cost do these unfounded lawsuits come to the American taxpayer?

Richards spoke of an “incredible escalation of harassment and intimidation” over the past five years at clinics that provide reproductive health services, including abortions.

Later in the month a federal judge ordered the State of Alabama to resume funding for PPS, stating that the termination violated the Medicaid Act.

“The speaker has said he will not predetermine what is included in the omnibus as the Appropriations Committee is still negotiating the details”, AshLee Strong, a spokeswoman for Ryan, told HuffPost. This has nothing to do with the select committee or pro-life movement. “Additionally, the Senate is voting this week to defund Planned Parenthood”, Strong said.

“So, my humble suggestion as a Congresswoman from Colorado is that we all take it down a notch”, DeGette said.

“And one common denominator in these tragedies is mental illness”, he told reporters.

But, appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” the billionaire businessman and former Atlantic City casino magnate did not directly respond to whether he thinks the incident was influenced by rhetoric against the women’s health clinic for offering abortions, saying only there is “tremendous dislike” for Planned Parenthood. And I think he was probably a person ready to go.

“Principles are principles”, Brat said.

For example, Republicans are working to block the administration from channeling federal dollars to developing nations so they can tackle climate change as part of a U.N. program called the Green Climate Fund.

A Republican congressional leader on Monday defended a House investigation of Planned Parenthood’s provision of fetal tissue to researchers, offering no suggestion that last week’s shooting deaths at one of the group’s clinics will cause the GOP to retreat from that probe. The shooting hasn’t altered any of that. “Going to wait and see what happens”.
