Statement from the Press Secretary

President Trump’s commitment to protecting the most vulnerable is unwavering, and we applaud yesterday’s Ninth Circuit decision upholding our Title X regulation.  This regulation protects the unborn by ensuring Title X grants are allocated as Congress intended – and not as abortion providers or abortion advocacy organizations would prefer.  By law, Title X prohibits grant funds from going to programs where abortion is considered a method of family planning.  This ruling upholds the Title X regulation that will ensure compliance with that law.  The President and his Administration remain committed to advancing pro-life policies.
