Planned Parenthood is a non-profit organization that provides reproductive health services in the United States and internationally. In 2014, federal and state governments provided the organization with $528 million in funding (40% of its annual budget). The majority of this funding comes from Medicaid which subsidizes reproductive healthcare for low-income women. In 2014, abortions accounted for 3% of the services they provided. The majority of the other services include screening for and treating sexually transmitted diseases and infections and providing contraception. Proponents of funding argue that federal funding for Planned Parenthood does not pay for abortions and that the vast majority of government funding that the organization receives is through Medicaid reimbursements. Opponents of funding argue that the government should not fund any organizations that provide abortions.

The government should fund PP but allow limited applications of the funds
They should make more of the medical checkups available to the public at hospitals
Abortions should be available but we should teach people protection more in school so less abortions are made.
Yes, as long as funding is not used to preform abortion procedures. And as a non-profit government-funded organization, more should be looked into regarding their billing and spending prcosses.
Yes, but only for procedures and situations involving rape victims.
Yes, their services reach far beyond abortions and can save many lives through cancer screening, prenatal services, and adoption referrals. Plus in a rape situation you can't expect women to go through having that kid.
It should if the abortion is crime related
Depends on the situation, if a female gets rapped she should have the option of abortion
i dont like abortion unless the baby is already dead but sgouldnt stop bc everythingbelse thy do
Yes but only if the abortion actually threatens the mothers life.
yes, but not for abortions without a valid excuse like osteogenesis in a baby, not just a mistake baby
No, it's not really any of their business
I think that abortion is perfectly fine
abortion is the womans choice
Yes only if funding does not take a big percentage of their money.
yes, but the money can not be used for abortion because thats having the government pay for the murder
yes, but only if the family needs it.
yes they should continue to help aid them in medicine and therapy but eliminate abortion
This one's hard. I dunno.
No, because of the background of planned parenthood, but the government should continue to fund other abortion organizations.
Yes, but the organization should be heavily held to the non profit stance. All unused money should be returned to government annually.
No as long as it’s a natural process
Yes, but abortions and birth contraceptive services should happen in a different clinic than where their other services are
The government should not find planned parenthood but make it a state based decision only. A person has the right to do whatever they want with their body
No, the govt should not pay for abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Govt should create better sex education in schools and try to promote women's contraceptives more in some way.
Yes they should keep funding it but they should oversee it more in detail.
Only if they kill black babies
Yes, but as long as the funding is not used for abortion. There are many couples that want to conceive and are not able to but in some religions, it's not biblical to put enzymes in another person's uterus. So people should have religious exceptions on funding certain things.
No, but the government should control health care costs in general and allow for abortions
no I think it should be privately owned and operated by someone else, I don't want my tax dollars going towards organizations that I do not fully support
They should find everything except abortion
Yes, but not for abortion purposes and should fund adoption, birth control, and education.
Planned parenthood should be funded by the states, and abortion should not be illegal
They should still fund planned parenthood, but I believe that they should donate money to abortions aswell because I am pro choice and I believe the women carrying that child should decide for herself what is best for herself and her family in the long run.
Yes!!! Abortion is seen as the only thing they do but they help prevent pregnancy altogether for those who want to be safe, they help with health issues (mental and physical) for younger people who’s families cannot afford those things as well as kids whose families refuse to support them!
whatever the popular vote and government decide
No, funding should stop for all organizations. Also, the government should ban abortions.
Yes, but reduce funding for alternative programs.
no, I believe abortions should be not allowed unless circumstances like rape
Yes but abortion should only be illegal for whites.
they should fund it to a point
Yes but they should reduce funding
Yes, but i would not want people to abuse it.
Yes, their services reach far beyond abortions and can save many lives through cancer screening, prenatal services, and adoption referrals BUT I feel like people should ALWAYS use protection so they don't have to face abortion and there should be a limit on how many times you can get one!!!!
Funds should only go to government based programs.
No, If someone does not want their child they can put the child up for adoption or put the child in a foster home. Its better than killing the child, because at least the child can live their life and maybe become successful one day.
I am a male, I don't think males should get to choose or vote on laws or rules that are female specific.
Yes, among other choices like abortion, ONLY if its before first trimester and the father agrees
as long as its for the right reasons and before a certain point in the pregnancy.
