Planned Parenthood Regains Medicaid Funding After Trump-Era Cuts Expire
Planned Parenthood clinics regained access to federal Medicaid funding beginning July 5 after a one-year defunding period ended, allowing reimbursement for contraception, STI screenings, and other non-abortion services. The restoration reverses Trump administration efforts to strip the organization from the Medicaid program, directly impacting millions of Americans' access to preventive reproductive healthcare services.
