The pro-life movement is witnessing one of its greatest national victories in decades. Following the passage of President Trump’s budget reconciliation “Big, Beautiful Bill,” which includes a measure defunding abortion providers of Medicaid dollars, dozens of Planned Parenthood clinics have closed or are preparing to close their doors.

According to SBA Pro-Life America, at least 41 Planned Parenthood facilities have already shut down or will soon, with projections that as many as 200 clinics could ultimately be forced to close. This comes as taxpayer support for abortion businesses is being phased out. SBA president Marjorie Dannenfelser called the measure “the biggest national pro-life victory since the Dobbs decision.”

The impact of this shift cannot be overstated. For years, Planned Parenthood received nearly half a billion dollars annually in Medicaid reimbursements, even though federal law prohibits direct funding of abortions. While the Hyde Amendment blocks federal dollars from paying for abortions themselves, pro-life advocates have long argued that funneling money to abortion providers indirectly sustains their operations. The new law aims to end that practice.

Planned Parenthood is fighting back in court. The abortion giant has filed suit against the Trump administration, and a federal judge appointed by former President Barack Obama has temporarily blocked the defunding measure while litigation continues. Planned Parenthood has claimed that 200 of its facilities could be at risk, but for pro-life Americans, this represents a long-overdue correction in federal policy.

The closures reveal another important truth: Planned Parenthood’s non-abortion services have dramatically declined in recent years. Cancer screenings, pap smears, and breast exams have fallen by more than 50 percent, while contraceptive services are down almost 40 percent. Meanwhile, community health centers outnumber Planned Parenthood clinics by a ratio of 15 to 1 nationwide, offering more comprehensive care to women and families without ending the lives of unborn children.

Planned Parenthood’s own annual report highlights the stark contrast: in 2023–2024, the organization performed a record 402,230 abortions while receiving $792 million in taxpayer funding — a near $100 million increase from the prior year. At the same time, abortion numbers climbed, and life-saving health services shrank.

Pro-life leaders are hopeful that this defunding marks a turning point. With more states, like South Carolina and Oklahoma, successfully blocking Medicaid dollars from flowing to abortion providers, momentum is building across the nation.

I dont believe in using abortion as a birth control. Anyone can go to a government health clinic for condoms or other birth control options for free. With all the diseases if I was having casual sex a condom definitely. The only abortion can agree with is life threatening, or race. I know of a young girl in middle school that already has had 3 abortions. It’s sad. What happened to saving yourself for true love and marriage.

This is all well and good, but why aren’t we as vocal regarding premarital sex? Perhaps if Christians decided that sex was to remain between husband and wife the abortion industry wouldn’t be necessary.

YHVH, we are thankful that PP clinics are closing – may they all! Now Lord, I ask that You provide strategies to stop the sale of the abortion drugs, because as Cynthia pointed out – the battle is not won unless that, too, is accomplished. And the battle for the souls of a generation steeped in “abortion rights for women” propaganda also rages on – and that will require the transformational power of Holy Spirit, and the testimonies of the Truth that babies have a “right to life” be accomplished. Thank You for sustaining us in the continued battle for the unborn!

Praise God, and may he grant us the help needed in the courts to continue to fight this evil that takes the lives of unborn babies.
And then go further, into the hearts of the mothers and the providers that commit such acts.
God cleanse the wicked acts of murder from our Nation.
God bless the children. 🙏

Over 400,000 abortions in one year… God, forgive us. Forgive our blood soaked land. I know this breaks your heart. Jesus, thank you for your blood that covers even the gravest of sins. Holy Spirit, bring revelation and cause people to value all of the babies you created. Create a surplus of babies so couples like my husband and I can adopt a baby without having to pay a fortune. Bring reformation to the adoption industry in America and stop them from selling babies to the highest bidder. Stop the lawyers from using infertile couples and young pregnant women to get rich. Our country is broken, Lord. We need your help. Your are the only one who can fix it. Come, Lord, in all your glory and do what needs to be done. Amen.

Than you Jesus for sending your Holy Spirit to convince law makers the wisdom to shut down abortion clinics. Our babies are a gift from God and murdering babies even in the womb is murder.
ABBA FATHER, please continue to encourage those where the abortion clinics are being closed to stand strong in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Blood of the slain babies are crying out from the earth. We. Stand together saying no more murdering our babies. In Jesus Mighty Name Amen

Praise God! By your grace, Lord, I pray that ALL abortion clinics will be forced to shut down because of this defunding. This is something that needed to happen long ago.

This is a wonderful answer to prayer. However, we also need to pray that the morning after pill. Would be abolished because women are not even going to clinics.They’re just taking the morning after pill. And there are terrible side effects for both mother and baby.

Lord of all, the God who forms us in the womb, who knew us before we were knit together in our mother’s wombs, I give you praise and glory for drying up the federal funds that provided abortions on demand across this country, and around the world. We praise you for this progress. Yet, Lord, we cry out for complete reformation of minds and souls regarding life itself. Oh, that people would love what You love – human life. You loved human life so much that You sent Your Son to die for us that we might live with You forever. He died for the children. Lord, bring Holy fire reformation upon the people of this nation. Transform us completely. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Heavenly Father, thank you for allowing our government to correct this horrible act by our country in taking the lives of the unborn through government funding. We pray that all planned Parenthood locations, as well as other locations that offer this service, permanently close, and that we instill Christian values within our country that honor life. We pray for an end to child sacrifice and we repent for the support of this horrible sin through the use of government funding. Thank you Heavenly Father for allowing this wonderful victory, and may we promote abstinence and the sanctity of marriage within our society. May we also provide prayer, love and support to women so that they will never consider abortion as an option. We ask this in the name of your son Yeshua.

Lord we declare that by every suit filed by planned parenthood against the administration under President Trump (in any court in this nation)
in regards to taxpayer funded abortions is null & void/canceled &
defeated by the power & authority of the Ekklesia of The Lord of Hosts.
We release God’s Spirit of revelation into the hearts of every judge in this nation to submit to the Truth that life originates in You & You alone. Open their eyes to see that life in & outside of the womb must be protected at all costs.

    Dear Heavenly Father, God Almighty, Ruler over all,

    I pray in total agreement with Barbara and Shirley. You are God over all. We love You and adore You. I ask that You have total control over all those who are attempting to save lives who You and You alone create. Thank you for what President Trump is doing to foster LIFE in our country.

    I ask TOTAL forgiveness for all the sin that our country as caused via the sin of abortion, in the precious and holy name of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

    In Your precious and holy name I pray this.
