The Local Consequences of Trump's New Abortion Law
The Trump administration's recent changes to the Title X family planning program would shift tens of millions of dollars from Planned Parenthood toward faith-based clinics. Laura McQuade, CEO at Planned Parenthood of New York City, discusses the potential consequences for New York State.
"This is an abomination. This is an incursion by politicians into medical care that is unprecedented. Politicians practicing medicine without a license and frankly committing malpractice," says Laura McQuade of @PPNYCAction on the Trump admin changes to Title X. pic.twitter.com/BZsWTzaoKJ

"A provider can't be mandated by law to limit information from patients... and that is exactly what the restrictions on this Title X program do," says Laura McQuade of @PPNYCAction. "It forces providers not to tell their patients [about] access to safe and legal abortion."
