      The implications of the Trump-Pence administration’s attack on Title X with a gag rule are staggering. It compromises the oath I took to serve my patients and help them make the best decisions about their health. #NoGagRulepic.twitter.com/oXxall1vd8

      This “gag rule” will prohibit providers from referring women for legal, evidence-based reproductive health choices.

      Abortion care is standard medical health care. 1 in 4 American women will have an abortion in their lifetimes. It is part of the full spectrum of reproductive health care, which is health care.

      I took an oath to do everything I can to help my patients, and I must be able to speak freely and honestly with them. Silencing doctors’ abilities to speak with our patients compromises our ethical obligation. Politicians have no place in the exam room.

      Title X is the only national grant program dedicated to providing family planning for low-income women and families. It helps people get testing for STDs, helps prevents cancer, and empowers people to make the best health choices for themselves.

      The Trump-Pence administration knows what it’s doing. In a country where racism and discrimination have caused rampant inequities and disparities, an attack on Title X – a program for patients with low incomes – is an attack on poor women and people of color.

          Planned Parenthood is proud to serve 41% of the 4 million people who rely on Title X health centers. We will always be here for our patients. We will fight this rule with everything we have.

          Furthermore, do you even know anything about Margaret Sanger? Abortion and PP were FOUNDED on racism and hatred. Margaret Sanger wanted to get rid of the African-American population because, in her words, they were a threat to society. How disgusting that you openly support that.

          Using Title X funds to target poor women and people of color with the exploitative practice of abortion is abhorrent. No abortion provider should have access to public funds. “Abortion is the ultimate exploitation of women.” —Alice Paul
