21 states, DC sue Trump administration over rules cutting Planned Parenthood funding
(Worthy News) – Twenty-one states and the District of Columbia are suing the Trump administration over new rules that would cut federal funding from Planned Parenthood and other clinics that provide or discuss abortions.
