Trump v Planned Parenthood

Well, it is official Trump found his loophole to defund Planned Parenthood. He just recently signed a bill allowing states to withhold federal funding from Planned Parenthood. Now this puts the power in the states' hands but we have learned from the book Pushed that this will affect many people in the central and southern regions of America. In these places there are only a few if not only one Planned Parenthood for the state; this already shows how resistant these states are to Planned Parenthood. Now the states can cut the funding, which will make it very difficult to keep these clinics open. However, they do not realize that not one penny from federal funding goes to abortion, which let's be real is their main concern. I just find it frustrating that now these women who want affordable healthcare or even abortion now have to go through a greater inconvenience. Instead of travelling across the state now they must travel to different states to find the closest Planned Parenthood. I am so done with men making decisions over women's bodies and healthcare. This does not effect them so they should not have a say. We need more women in government fighting for this because right now this is ridiculous. However, I guess it is good that he has not completely pulled the funding. There are still states that will allow the funding to go to Planned Parenthood, which is great.
