AUSTIN, Texas (AP) – Texas has put Planned Parenthood on notice of plans to soon cut off Medicaid funds.
Planned Parenthood has responded by vowing to ask a court to stop Texas from de-funding clinics in January.
Republican Gov. Greg Abbott pledged to kick Planned Parenthood out of the state’s Medicaid program more than a year ago, joining other socially conservative governors who took similar steps in 2015.
