It closes off Planned Parenthood’s primary court path to keeping Medicaid funding in place: patient lawsuits.</p><p>"The justices found that while Medicaid law allows people choose their own provider, that does not make it a right enforceable in court. The court split along ideological lines, with the three liberals dissenting in the case from <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SouthCarolina" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SouthCarolina</span></a>.</p><p>"Public health care money generally cannot be used to pay for abortions, but Medicaid patients go to Planned Parenthood for other needs in part because it can be difficult to find a doctor who takes the publicly funded insurance, the organization has said.</p><p>"South Carolina Gov. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HenryMcMaster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HenryMcMaster</span></a>, a Republican [and asshole], said Planned Parenthood should not get any taxpayer money. The budget bill backed by President Donald Trump in Congress would also cut Medicaid money for the group. That could force the closure of about 200 centers, most of them in states where abortion is legal, Planned Parenthood has said."</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://apnews.com/article/abortion-heartbeat-ban-upheld-south-carolina-68df7ce8400493fdc175ec1fc4326a1e" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">apnews.com/article/abortion-he</span><span class="invisible">artbeat-ban-upheld-south-carolina-68df7ce8400493fdc175ec1fc4326a1e</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WelcomeToGilead" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WelcomeToGilead</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TheHandmaidsTale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheHandmaidsTale</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/McMasterIsABastard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>McMasterIsABastard</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ProBirth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProBirth</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ProCancer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProCancer</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MAGADeathCult" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MAGADeathCult</span></a></p>
