Pro-life groups praise House GOP budget bill cutting Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood
- On May 22, 2025, the Republican-controlled U.S. House approved the One Big Beautiful Bill, which eliminates Medicaid funding for abortion providers—including Planned Parenthood—for a decade, and sent the legislation to the Senate for consideration.
- This legislation follows longstanding efforts by Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans to defund abortion providers amid debates over taxpayer funding and prior government cash to Planned Parenthood.
- Pro-Life groups praised the bill for ending taxpayer support of an industry criticized for prioritizing abortions over prenatal care, while opponents warned it would cut health care access and could close Planned Parenthood centers.
- Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of SBA Pro-Life America, praised the narrow 215-214 House vote—with support from Trump—as a significant achievement in combating abortion, which she described as the leading cause of death in the United States.
- The bill’s passage signals a major step toward restricting abortion funding, but its ultimate effect depends on Senate approval and ongoing political contests over Medicaid and reproductive health programs.
