Another 9th circuit "shock"

Yes, again with the 9th! Little chance the USSC will overrule this. 

A federal court upheld the @realDonaldTrump administration’s disallowing abortion facilities from receiving funds from Title X.

This will strip @PPFA of $60M in funding per year as lawsuits challenging the policy make their way through the courts. https://t.co/bhKLK0bHhU

While there will be much pearl clutching on  the left, the reality here is that there will be just as much money provided by the Government for women's health as at any other time. The difference is which types of facilities will be receiving it.

In the past, when tasked with the decision as to which facilities to give give money to, Planned Parenthood (which provides abortions, but does not have facilities to do many other types of women's services) was always at the top of the list. Possibly because of their known access to abortions. But with the new allocation of funding, more money will go to women's healthcare centers that offer more in the line of cancer screenings, and other types of medical services that is not offered at Planned Parenthood.

Since Planned Parenthood has always suggested that no Federal money was being spent on abortions, I don't see how this will lower access for women to actually still have that service performed. They still should be able to continue to fund those abortions with their other funding (as they always claimed they were).

I wonder how we got to the point when did women's health care become almost singularly associated with little more than birth control, STD testing, and abortions? Because that sounds a lot more like sexual health care, than women's health care.
