Planned Parenthood in Maine Seeking More State Funding to Offset Budget Cuts
UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – A federal judge issued a 14-day nationwide restraining order blocking the defunding of Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid reimbursements amid ongoing legal challenges to the law.
- On July 4, President Donald J. Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill into law, halting Medicaid reimbursements to Planned Parenthood, which received about $2 million daily.
- Following longstanding efforts by Republicans, the legislation passed narrowly after pro-life lawmakers' push, reducing the initial 10-year funding ban to one year before final approval.
- On July 7, Planned Parenthood sued in Massachusetts federal court, and Judge Talwani issued a nationwide restraining order pausing enforcement for 14 days.
- Planned Parenthood clinics face staff layoffs and potential closures, especially in rural areas, as the Medicaid funding ban remains blocked by an injunction.
- The Trump administration plans to appeal, with pro-life groups urging courts to uphold the law supported by Supreme Court rulings limiting nationwide injunctions.
