Trump signs bill allowing states to withhold funding from abortion services

[Landon]

More good news for the anti-abortion community. Trump signed a bill (out of media's reach) that allows states to withhold federal funding from abortion services/clinics. The primary target? Planned Parenthood. The bill reverses what Obama signed which said that states were prohibited from withholding federal funding to the services.

President Donald Trump privately signed a bill on Thursday that allows states to withhold federal money from organizations that provide abortion services, including Planned Parenthood, a group frequently targeted by Republicans.

The bill, which the usually camera-friendly President signed without any media present, reverses an Obama-era regulation that prohibited states from withholding money from facilities that perform abortions, arguing that many of these facilities also provide other family planning and medical services.
The bulk of federal money Planned Parenthood receives, though, goes toward preventive health care, birth control, pregnancy tests and other women's health services. Federal law prohibits taxpayer dollars from funding abortions and Planned Parenthood says 3% of the services it provides are abortions.

What do you think?

I don't get it. The reasons for being anti-abortion are radically different from 'pro abortion'.
