What: The Wall Street Journal reports that the Trump administration is freezing $27.5 million in federal family-planning grants to organizations, under the guise of investigating ‘diversity efforts’. The freeze affects groups like Planned Parenthood, and could suspend funding for pregnancy testing, contraception, STI treatment, and infertility counseling.
Key Line: “Alexis McGill Johnson, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, said: ‘The Trump-Vance-Musk administration wants to shut down Planned Parenthood health centers by any means necessary, and they’ll end people’s access to birth control, cancer screenings, STI testing and treatment, and more to do it.’”
