Quote:A federal judge on Monday temporarily blocked a provision in President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill that barred Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood.

US District Judge Indira Talwani, an Obama appointee, issued a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and set a preliminary injunction hearing for July 21.

Planned Parenthood sued the Trump Administration over its funding cuts written into the newly-passed reconciliation bill.

The House passed the Big Beautiful Bill last week and President Trump signed in on July 4th at the White House.

“Everyone deserves access to high-quality, affordable health care. That’s what we’ve been fighting for the last century — and we’ll never stop,” President and CEO of Planned Parenthood Alexis McGill Johnson said last week. “We’ll be suing the Trump administration to stop this unlawful attack. See you in court.”

CNN reported:

Planned Parenthood is suing the Trump administration over the “big, beautiful bill” defunding its health care services, arguing the provision will have devastating consequences across the country.

The bill, passed late last week and signed into law by President Donald Trump on July 4, will bar Medicaid users from coverage with a health care provider that also provides abortion services.

While the law does not explicitly mention Planned Parenthood, the nationwide family planning and health care provider is in its crosshairs. The law prohibits federal funding for providers “primarily engaged in family planning services, reproductive health, and related medical care” that also provide abortion.

Planned Parenthood has warned that nearly 200 clinics nationwide – which also provide birth control, STI testing and treatment, and cancer screening – could close as a result of the bill’s one-year ban on funds.

That's now law. Screw that idiot.

Tough turds librocrites.

No third party organization has a right to federal funding.

Whether you want healthcare or "reproductive healthcare", pay for it yourself, or get a job with insurance.

But the judicial system is infallible! Somebody said as much. /sarcasm

Planned Parenthood should never, ever get another cent from us, the American taxpayer. Point blank. Period.

Federal judges have it made

Wait....what? lol

It's been voted through both houses of congress and signed into law by the president.

Liberal judges are a cancer.

The Judicial Branch has no role in appropriations duly passed by the Legislative Branch and signed by the President.

Elections have consequences. Judges are not kings or queens ruling over their subjects.

This is finally a judge I would start impeachment proceedings against. Thinks he can overrule the budget process.

What other doctors' offices do you all support specifically singling out?

By the way, this isnt a matter of government grants, its a denial directed *at* a specific medical organization prohibiting the US Government to remit Medicaid funds to en toto. For *any* procedure or any medical service.


So, which other doctor practices in specific and by name should be singled out for complete denial of a all Medicaid funds for *all* medical issues in your all's mind? And, for what underlying reason?

If this were a block grant, Id agree with you all. it isnt. The law *specifically* singles out PPH as being barred for being able to receive *any* *Medicaid* funds for *any* medical services it provides. So, I look forward to any answer any of you all can provide to the question posed above in italics, if any of you might.

The prohibition specifically targets Planned Parenthood Federation of America (“PPFA”) and its member healthcare providers in order to punish them for lawful activity, namely advocating for and providing legal abortion access wholly outside
the Medicaid program and without using any federal funds, by purposefully and categorically prohibiting health centers associated with Planned Parenthood from receiving *any* Medicaid reimbursements, even those not associated with abortion.

You all on board with that 'prohibit' specifically *named* medical services from acting to dispense medical services that are specifically covered by Medicaid? Sounds extremely retributive to me.

Not a government institution, Planned Abortionhood can suck a big veiny ****

Exactly.

Remember when Obama defiantly stated, "Elections have consequences"?

Remember when Pelosi and countless other Dems on Capitol Hill chirped with glee before the cameras, "No one is above the law"?

After all of that we don't want to hear it. Talk to the hand!

So if there are a million places providing medical services covered by Medicaid, you are all for passing a law that bars one and only one provider from being paid for medical services by Medicaid?

A simple yes or no will suffice.

What other medical service providers should be barred from collecting Medicaid funds for provided medical services by being named specifically in a targeted law?

What other "medical" institution uses its funding for proactive political activism?

If you name one, then I will probably say yes to your question.

Where were you when Barry Obama was handing out judge certificates for the great transformation?

Oh, I forgot about the racial-gender aspects of his qualification template. But you got the prog filth part covered quite nicely. I am assuming you are white? How racist of me
