the senate version of 'healthcare' calls for one year defunding of Planned Parenthood

how could PP withstand a year without funding?

1. Fed funds are not 100% of their funding so they would probably "survive."

But it would be a heavy blow, and affect those folks in rural and impoverished areas most.

2. once they stop the funding i have absolutely no faith they would reinstitute it.

[Wounded Bear]

3. Well, "they" won't do it...

which is why we'll need to take back the Congress.

6. Iowa cuts its family planning budget this year and 4 PPs have already closed.
