This is on top of the $375K the D.C. Obamacare exchange awarded Planned Parenthood yesterday.
Via Daily Caller:
Three Planned Parenthood affiliates will be receiving a total of more than $655,000 grants from the federal government to serve as Obamacare “navigators” to help people enroll in the health-care exchanges.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced $67 million in grants to 105 “Navigator grant applicants” Thursday.
Iowa’s Planned Parenthood of the Heartland, Montana’s Intermountain Planned Parenthood, Inc. DBA Planned Parenthood and New Hampshire’s Planned Parenthood of Northern New England are included in that list.
“Navigators will be among the many resources available to help consumers understand their coverage options in the Marketplace,” Sebelius said in her announcement. “A network of volunteers on the ground in every state — health care providers, business leaders, faith leaders, community groups, advocates, and local elected officials — can help spread the word and encourage their neighbors to get enrolled.”
