💨 Abstract
Planned Parenthood North Central States announced the closure of eight clinics in Iowa and Minnesota within a year, citing federal funding freezing, proposed budget cuts, and state abortion restrictions. The closures include the only Iowa clinic offering abortions. The organization will lay off 66 employees and focus on telemedicine. The remaining clinics include six that provide abortions, primarily in Minnesota. The closures are attributed to political and funding pressures, including a new Iowa law that significantly reduced abortion access.
