Pro-Life Leaders Respond After Passage of ‘Big Beautiful Bill' Defunding Planned Parenthood for a Year
2025-07-04
[OregonRightToLife] The Republican-led U.S. Congress passed the "Big Beautiful Bill" in a 218-214 vote Thursday, officially approving a provision cutting federal taxpayer funding for Planned Parenthood for a year. The move is anticipated to cause the shuttering of hundreds of abortion facilities nationwide.

...The bill had undergone numerous revisions in both chambers of Congress prior to its Thursday passage. Significantly, an earlier provision to strip taxpayer dollars from Planned Parenthood for a decade was reduced to a single year in the Senate shortly before its final passage. Despite the changes, the surviving version of the bill will still temporarily cut funding to the abortion giant.
It can be made permanent in another bill. Congress gets to do that, you know.
Planned Parenthood Action Fund recently estimated that the federal defunding of Planned Parenthood could trigger the closure of almost 200 Planned Parenthood abortion facilities in 24 states nationwide.

Pro-life advocates have responded enthusiastically to the bill's passage.
