Appeals Court Sides with Planned Parenthood Over Indiana Defunding Law

Posted by on Tue, Oct 23, 2012 at 10:40 AM

Good news!

A federal appeals court has ruled that Indiana can't cut off funding for Planned Parenthood just because the organization provides abortions.

The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago on Tuesday upheld the core portion of a lower court order that said Indiana cannot enforce a state law that barred abortion providers from collecting Medicaid funds for any medical services.
