Court Lets Trump Admin Enforce Medicaid Cut for Planned Parenthood
Update: 2025-12-31
Description
U.S. appeals court in Boston allows Trump administration to enforce Medicaid funding cuts for Planned Parenthood centers performing abortions in Democratic-led states, overturning a lower court order. The provision in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act bars Medicaid money from going to tax-exempt groups that do abortions if they received more than $800,000 in such funds during fiscal year 2023. Planned Parenthood claims the rule targets them directly and has already forced at least 20 of their health centers to close. Democratic attorneys general from states like California, Massachusetts, and New York challenged the law, arguing it unfairly changes Medicaid rules they couldnt have seen coming. The appeals court panel, made up entirely of judges appointed by Democratic presidents, disagreed, saying the Trump team showed a good likelihood of winning on appeal, calling the law clear and within Congresss power to change Medicaid rules.
