Oklahoma Senate votes to defund Planned Parenthood 2 Days after Tornado

Source: Huffington Post

In the wake of one of the most destructive tornadoes in history, Oklahoma state senators passed a bill on Wednesday that would effectively defund Planned Parenthood.

Senate Bill 900, which re-allocates family planning funds to public providers and hospitals instead of private providers like Planned Parenthood, passed by a vote of 33 to 8. The state Senate was able to pass the bill somewhat under the radar because it was not posted on Wednesday's legislative agenda.

Planned Parenthood operates five clinics in Oklahoma and serves about 8,400 men and women there a year. The family planning provider has faced scrutiny from Republicans in recent years because it provides abortions, even though it cannot use public family planning funding to pay for abortion services.

State Rep. Doug Cox (R), a family physician, said he will vote against the legislation when the House takes it up on Thursday. "To defund a program like Planned Parenthood would be a mistake," he told The Huffington Post in a phone interview. "They perform a valuable service as far as breast cancer screenings, cervical cancer screenings, parenting classes, many things that benefit our state that we're sorely in need of."

Cox said he believes that some of his Republican colleagues in the House also support Planned Parenthood, but they still feel pressured to vote for bills that would defund it. "I have people who tell me they feel the way I do, but are afraid to vote the way I do," he said.

“This is not what Oklahomans want the Legislature to be focusing on as session winds down," she said in a statement. "This bill does nothing to provide Oklahoma women with health care. Instead, it shifts family planning money away from specialists in reproductive health care to other agencies that don’t have the capacity or the expertise to serve the women who come to us."

Neo-Cons strike again. I hope everyone will encourage friends in Oklahoma to call their state congressmen.

2. These aren't neo-cons. They're theocratic fascists.

When did PP become codified in the BoR?

7. Clearly, the state of OK...

... doesn't care about it's women, OR its children. Tightwads won't support the mothers with reproductive healthcare or their children with storm shelters in the schools. Exactly what are that state's priorities?

Nothing says you care more about children than siphoning their brains out.

8. That is just sickening. Like looters after a storm. nt

Yeah.

Not giving someone someone else's money is just like looting.

10. And here is why giving them tornado money is

A really bad idea over the long run. They don't want to be a part of the US.

PP = US

Simple math.

I've never understood how the left can support giving taxpayer money to a private for-profit corporation that earns millions of  dollars every year.

You see, I don't care you how feel.  I really don't.  More importantly, neither does anyone else.  Only about 200 people on a planet of 7 billion actually care about your feelings, and that's if you're lucky.  The sooner you grasp this lesson, the better off you will be.  And since almost no one gives a damn what you do, say, think, or feel, appealing to your feelings when you encounter differences of opinion is not only illogical, but useless.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

Conservative procreation vs. Progtarded liberal abortion frenzy.

Along with Southern Illinois.  You have no idea how much we hate Chicago.  The term does not exist.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

We learned some time ago that a few Oklahomans are cannibals.

Now, apparently a few thousand men down there get abortions.

It's kind of hard to comprehend.
