Abortuaries in Michigan, Utah, Illinois and New York have been forced to close by Donald Trump's ban on federal funding of child murder.
Within weeks of returning to office, President Donald Trump began enforcing the Hyde Amendment (which forbids most federal funds from directly supporting elective abortions), reinstated the Mexico City Policy (which forbids non-governmental organizations from using taxpayer dollars for elective abortions abroad), and cut millions in pro-abortion subsidies by freezing U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) spending.
In March, the administration froze Title X “family planning” grants to nonprofits it said violated its executive orders on immigration and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, including Planned Parenthood affiliates in nine states.
Last year, Planned Parenthood’s annual report revealed that its affiliates across the nation took in $699.3 million in government “health services” reimbursements and grants, accounting for 39 percent of its total revenue during that period. Losing some of that money has taken a considerable toll.
Last month that the abortion giant closed four facilities in Michigan as a result of the cuts, and now KSL reports that two Utah locations are meeting the same fate, specifically its St. George and Logan locations. Additionally, Planned Parenthood Association of Utah is raising fees and laying off staff. The affiliate relied on $2.8 million that has been frozen over DEI. Abortion mills in New York and Illinois have also been forced to shut their bloodstained doors.
