This week, Debi and Sam are joined by Mayra Rodriguez. Mayra is a former Planned Parenthood trainer and clinic director who is now a national pro-life activist.
Mayra, Debi and Sam discuss taxpayer funding and Planned Parenthood. Last year, Planned Parenthood received almost 800 million dollars in taxpayer funding, almost 2 million dollars per day. They discuss why executive orders cannot fully defund Planned Parenthood and other abortion mills.
Mayra, Debi and Sam discuss Title X and Medicaid and the ways in which Planned Parenthood abuses the system, takes money from other federally qualified health centers that provide a wider range of services, and often double and triple count services to gain access to more funding. They also discuss why this practice means that their reported percentages of services are not accurate. For example, they dishonestly claim that abortion only makes up 3% of their services.
There is a current Supreme Court case, Medina v Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, related to state's rights to defund Planned Parenthood through Medicaid and the "Big Beautiful Bill" passed the US House containing language to defund Planned Parenthood, also through Medicaid. This episode explains why this type of defunding is critical.
