“Over four million Americans benefit from the critical health services Planned Parenthood provides each year.  For many, particularly those already facing the greatest health care disparities, Planned Parenthood is their only source of health care.  Any attempt to defund Planned Parenthood would set reproductive rights back by decades. We cannot allow the Republican Congress to undermine the Medicaid reimbursement system and deny 55 million women access to free, comprehensive preventative care, birth control and cancer screenings. This is an attack on women’s health for purely political reasons and we cannot and will not stand for it.”
