Since Planned Parenthood was defunded via the Big Beautiful Bill (for one year), 41 Planned Parenthood facilities have closed. This represents only 7% of the total number of Planned Parenthood facilities, which currently stands at 600. In Ohio, where abortion has recently been enshrined in our State Constitution, this incremental progress signifies hope and the potential for even greater impact at a national scale.

In Ohio and across the United States, many individuals believe that defunding Planned Parenthood at the Federal level offers a rare and precious opportunity to substantially reduce the number of abortions performed. Planned Parenthood, one of the leading providers of abortion services in the country, continues to receive significant funding from the government. 

Defunding Planned Parenthood is not just a symbolic gesture. Data indicates that when such facilities close, community health resources are reallocated to life-affirming services, benefiting women's health without contributing to abortion.

This petition seeks the PERMANENT defunding of Planned Parenthood across the United States. We urge federal policymakers to reconsider the allocation of taxpayer dollars to an organization consistently at the center of the abortion debate. Instead, these funds could be invested in local clinics that offer comprehensive healthcare without providing abortion services.

By signing this petition, you join countless others who are advocating for a policy shift that ensures support is directed towards life-affirming healthcare services. Help us ensure that America steps forward with alternative solutions that respect all lives. Sign today to support the cause of defunding Planned Parenthood at a national level.
