Appeals court allows Trump administration to end Planned Parenthood's Medicaid funding
- A U.S. appeals court panel permitted the Trump administration to withhold Medicaid funding from Planned Parenthood while related court cases proceed.
- This decision follows a federal judge's July ruling that required Planned Parenthood clinics nationwide to continue receiving Medicaid reimbursements.
- The ruling is based on a clause in Trump’s 2023 tax legislation that prohibited Medicaid from funding abortion providers for a full year if they received over $800,000 in Medicaid funds.
- Planned Parenthood reported this ruling affects more than 1.1 million patients who rely on Medicaid at about 200 health centers at risk of closure.
- The Medicaid blockage highlights ongoing conflict over funding, impacting millions of low-income Americans dependent on Planned Parenthood's medical services.
