<\/div>

Utah was\u00a0one of several states <\/a>to announce plans to stop the taxpayer funding of\u00a0Planned Parenthood earlier this year.\u00a0Now the Utah state health department announced it will remove\u00a0approximately $225,000 <\/a>from the budget for Planned Parenthood, by canceling contracts with the abortion giant\u00a0and redirecting\u00a0the money to local health care agencies.<\/p>\n

“We are going to be eliminating all of those\u00a0[Planned Parenthood]\u00a0contracts or allowing some of them to expire… We can redistribute the money to other partners,” said Tom Hudachko of the Utah Department of Health.<\/p>\n

Governor Herbert made it clear that\u00a0diverting<\/a>\u00a0money from Planned Parenthood does not mean the end of funding for women’s health care; rather, it removes\u00a0funding from an agency that\u00a0has demonstrated a callous disregard for the law, and for the rights and health of its patients.<\/p>\n

\"DefundAd-400b\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not going to stop that funding. It just won\u2019t be made available through Planned Parenthood,\u201d\u00a0explained Gov.\u00a0Herbert.\u00a0\u201cThe thing I find most appalling is the casualness, the callousness \u2026 the lack of respect, the lack of sensitivity to the unborn.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are over 13,500 clinics across the country that provide\u00a0comprehensive women’s health care<\/a>, including several in Utah. Removing funding from Planned Parenthood will allow the state to support such facilities, improving options for women’s health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
