Inside the clinics forced to abandon their funding because of Trump's chaotic Title X rules
in early July, some states, which are often the main recipients of Title X funding, made plans to withdraw from the program. Some, like Maryland, Massachusetts, and Illinois, will be making up the shortfall from state funds. The response has not been uniform. Other states who have sued the Trump administration, like Delaware, Rhode Island, Virginia and Nevada, are choosing to continue to accept Title X funding.
Right now, our doors [at the Planned Parenthood clinic in Vienna, West Virginia] are still open, we’re still serving patients. This rule has caused confusion from day one. But now since July 15, when the Trump administration began enforcing it, it’s become more confusing on the ground. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic is very committed to working with our patients and using emergency funding and bringing the gap, but it’s really holding up an umbrella to a tsunami.
This is a direct attack on low-income women and particularly people of color’s ability to access basic health care. I think more people need to be up in arms on this. I think we should all be concerned about what this means for our country.There is both judicial and administrative confusion, so no clarity. However, to us, it does not matter.
It’s almost certain that the hardest hit people, if we are unable to support this network, would be folks who live in very rural parts of the state, who experience poverty, and who already face barriers to access.Title X is roughly 30 percent of our budget. For many Title X patients in Maine and across the country, family planning clinics are the patients’ only sources of health care. And we’re talking about basic preventive health care and services. Providers, these are community clinics.
