Republicans aim to make the ban permanent, arguing that abortion providers shouldn’t receive federal funds — even though Medicaid doesn’t cover abortions. The fallout has strained reproductive healthcare access, especially for vulnerable patients with few alternatives. A new Supreme Court ruling next June will let states independently block Planned Parenthood from Medicaid, and states like Alabama, Florida, and Texas have already acted — expect more to follow as the national ban ends.
