Appeals court again allows Trump family planning rules to go into effect

A U.S. appeals court Friday again declined to block new rules from the Trump administration that prohibit clinics that receive federal funds from referring patients for abortions.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected a request from over 20 states, Planned Parenthood and the American Medical Association to suspend the rules while their case against them is litigated, according to The Associated Press.

A three-judge panel and an 11-judge panel had already ruled that the rules could go into effect while the administration appeals district court rulings against them. Oral arguments are slated to commence next month.

Planned Parenthood, the nation's chief abortion provider, said this week it would leave the federal Title X program Monday unless the administration's rules are blocked.
