HR 271 United States House · 119th Congress

Defund Planned Parenthood Act of 2025

This bill blocks federal funding for Planned Parenthood Federation of America and its clinics for one year unless they certify they won't perform abortions. Exceptions apply for pregnancies resulting from rape or incest, or when a woman's life is in danger due to a medical condition. The bill redirects the redirected funds to community health centers and other providers serving women's health needs, authorizing $235 million for this purpose. It explicitly states this will not reduce overall federal funding for women's health services. The policy change directly affects Planned Parenthood clinics receiving federal funds, requiring them to certify abortion restrictions or lose funding.
