It’s almost like Obama’s in the tank for Planned Parenthood.
Via LifeNews:
The Obama administration has turned down a request from Texas to run a family its Title X family planning program, funded with federal taxpayer dollars, without funding the Planned Parenthood abortion business.
Earlier this year, Texas yanked about $64 million in funding from Planned Parenthood and directed the funds to agencies that do not do abortions. In conjunction with that, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission submitted a request to the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services to circumvent the rules to be able to do so.
However, as it has in Indiana and New Hampshire, the Obama administration denied the request and, according to the Texas Tribune, Cindy Mann, director of the federal agency, wrote a letter to Texas officials today saying its request is a violation of the federal Social Security Act.
