And Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion provider. So we don&#8217;t want to effectively commit taxpayer money to an organization providing abortions, but we want to make sure that people get their coverage. That&#8217;s why there&#8217;s no conflict by making sure that these dollars go to [FQHCs] which provide the services and have a vast larger network than these Planned Parenthood clinics which are surrounded by a lot of controversy. And we don&#8217;t want to commit people&#8217;s taxpayer dollars to effectively funding something that they believe is morally unconscionable. Not everybody believes that, I understand that, but that&#8217;s a long-standing principle we&#8217;ve had in this country that we want to maintain&#8230; they get <em>a lot<\/em> of money, and you know, money is fungible, and it effectively floats these organizations, which then use other money&#8230; You don&#8217;t have this controversy by funding health centers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">&#8220;For every Planned Parenthood there are 20 community health centers&#8221; &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SpeakerRyan\">@SpeakerRyan<\/a> at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CNN\">@CNN<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/RyanTownHall?src=hash\">#RyanTownHall<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WomensHealthNotAbortion?src=hash\">#WomensHealthNotAbortion<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ProLife?src=hash\">#ProLife<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BMKpn7xA8m\">pic.twitter.com\/BMKpn7xA8m<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Susan B Anthony List (@SBAList) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SBAList\/status\/819929566244380672\">January 13, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On January 12, Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-WI) took part in a CNN town hall.
