Republicans will move to defund Planned Parenthood as part of a process to dismantle Obamacare, House Speaker Paul Ryan announced Thursday.
Cutting off federal funds to the organization will be included in Congressional Republicans’ “reconciliation” budget bill, which was first introduced Tuesday and essentially prevents Democrats from using a Senate filibuster to protect President Barack Obama’s 2010 health care overhaul, according to The Hill.
“Planned Parenthood legislation will be in our reconciliation bill,” Ryan said.
Ryan said in a separate statement that the Affordable Care Act is a “failed law” that is “hurting people right now.”
