The US supreme court has paved the way for South Carolina to kick Planned Parenthood out of its Medicaid program over its status as an abortion provider, a decision that could embolden red states across the country to effectively “defund” the reproductive healthcare organization.
The case, Medina v Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, centers around a 2018 executive order from South Carolina’s governor, Henry McMaster, that blocked clinics that provide abortions from receiving Medicaid reimbursements. Medicaid is the US government’s main health insurance program for low-income people. About 80 million people rely on it.
This will result in more unplanned pregnancies, more dangerous abortions, more suffering for women, more poverty, and fewer intelligent people in South Carolina as people with the means to leave do so.
People with means are always able to get birth control and abortions.
Something tells me Clarence Thomas recently had his motorhome jazzed up for free…
Should just pull up to the Gorsuch household and start dumping all the corpses of women who died because of something completely preventable all over their lawn
