They are defunding these Planned Parenthood offices because 3% of what they do is provide abortions!
What gets overlooked is that while the Republicans are attacking abortion and women that the other 97% of what these office provides is family planning services - birth control, mammograms, testing for STD, etc.
They are able to see patients within a week - not the 12-14 week wait at the Department of Health Services.
Women could die with that long of a wait. Cutting this program is monstrous! It's also a way for low-income women who have no insurance to get services. But not anymore.
When are we going to get sick and tired enough to raise some hell about this??? And please, no more getting on these threads with apathy saying all political parties are the same. THE GOP is doing this. All by themselves.
Their moralizing needs to stop. We need jobs -not the GOP dictating how we should live.
