More than 20 Democratic-led states sue Trump administration over Planned Parenthood funding cuts
UNITED STATES, JUL 30 – The lawsuit argues the Medicaid cuts violate constitutional rights and could force closure of one-third of clinics, impacting over 1 million patients relying on Planned Parenthood services.
- On Tuesday, California Attorney General Rob Bonta filed suit in Massachusetts to block the defund provision in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, joined by 22 states and the District of Columbia.
- As part of federal budget law, the defund provision signed on July 4 prohibits Medicaid funding for nonprofit clinics providing abortions, targeting providers like Planned Parenthood.
- Based on state data, one in four women in California have visited Planned Parenthood, and 80% of its patients rely on Medicaid, Jodi Hicks said Tuesday.
- On Monday, U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani barred enforcement of the payment ban, ensuring Medicaid reimbursements for Planned Parenthood clinics and warning of increased health risks.
- Amid ongoing legal challenges, the coalition of states asks the court to enjoin the Trump administration from implementing the defund provision, which critics say threatens widespread care disruptions.
