Ninth Circuit Upholds Trump Admin Rule Stripping Funding for Abortions

[LI] The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, a court known for its liberal leanings, ruled today that President Donald Trump’s administration can withdraw Title X funding from clinics associated with abortions.

President Richard Nixon enacted Title X in 1970, which "is a federal program that funds family planning services for low-income and uninsured people."

In 1988, Title X received regulations that stopped funding "programs that merely provided counseling or referrals for abortions for family-planning purposes." The Supreme Court upheld that rule in 1991.

The regulations on Title X relaxed by 2000 until 2019 when "the Department of Health and Human Services adopted regulations similar to the 1988 rule ‐ withdrawing funding from any medical facility that provides abortions, abortion counseling or abortion referrals."

#1 Hillary was supposed to win and these were to be her appointments. Flipping the 9th circuit is one Trumps biggest wins.

#2 Isn't this all possible because that turd Harry Reid changing rules? When the implications really start to sink in for liberal zealots, well I hope he has a lot of security.
