    The Trump Administration's rule ignored people all over the country who know personally how much it matters to have unbiased, quality care at Title X centers—including at Planned Parenthood. Republicans may have ignored them, but Democrats won't.

    Yesterday I released a memo highlighting statements from people across the country that were submitted in strong opposition to the Trump Admin's rule that once again undermines women's access to health care. If this is a fight that Republicans want—we're ready.
