The GOP isn't going to get a very large female (intelligent ones at least) vote over their
defund PP or else propaganda. They do far more than abortions, which accounts for
only 3% of their services, and the
feds don't even pay for any of those abortions anyway. All that defunding will do is hurt a lot of women, and yes, some men, who depend on their other mainstream health, reproductive and family planning services.

According to the Department of Health and Human Service’s website, "by law, Title X funds may not be used in programs where abortion is a method of family planning." Medicaid funding is restricted by the Hyde Amendment to only abortion cases involving rape, incest or endangerment to the life of the mother.

yes, we did.....I merely added the public sentiment on the matter into the mix. If you wish to beat me around the head and shoulders for not simply tacking it onto the original thread, have at it.
