Protect Funding for Women’s Health Care Act

This proposal would stop all federal money from going to Planned Parenthood and any of its clinics or related groups. It says that the funds that would have gone to Planned Parenthood must still be available to other health providers for women’s health services, like checkups, cancer screenings, family planning, and STI testing. It also says it does not change existing limits on federal funding for abortion and is not meant to reduce the total federal money for women’s health overall .

Key points:

• Who is affected: Planned Parenthood and its affiliates would no longer receive federal funds; other clinics and providers could receive those funds instead.
• What changes: Federal funding is blocked for Planned Parenthood, while keeping overall women’s health funding the same and keeping current abortion funding limits in place .
• When: The bill sets a general prohibition; it does not include a specific start date in the text provided.
