💨 Abstract

Planned Parenthood is challenging a federal provision, part of President Trump's tax bill, that cuts Medicaid funding to abortion providers. The organization argues this will harm vulnerable patients with limited healthcare options. A judge temporarily blocked the cuts, but the decision is pending. Planned Parenthood and similar providers, which serve many Medicaid recipients, face potential service reductions due to these cuts. The lawsuit aims to prevent the funding cuts while the case is resolved.
