Officials with Planned Parenthood welcomed President Obama in Orlando Thursday as he visited for a campaign event.
The two women, Jenna Cawley Tosh and Nancy Wolf, were part of a group that greeted Obama on the tarmac as he stepped off Air Force One.
Obama “spent time talking with each” before moving on to work a rope line, according to a White House pool report. Tosh and Wolf are President/CEO and Board Chairwoman of Planned Parenthood of Greater Orlando, respectively.
The divisive family-planning group has become a flashpoint in the presidential race as conservatives work to block its public funding over abortion.
Obama supports Planned Parenthood, which has long administered non-abortion health services to low-income women through Medicaid, while GOP candidate Mitt Romney has said he would “get rid of” it as president.
