Planned Parenthood May Have to Pay $1.8 Billion for Medicaid Fraud

The U.S. Department of Justice has notified a federal court that it intends to intervene in a Texas lawsuit accusing Planned Parenthood Federation of America and three of its affiliates of Medicaid fraud.

The case, which seeks roughly $1.8 billion in reimbursements, interest, and penalties, could force the nation’s largest abortion business to confront one of the largest financial judgments in its history.

The suit was originally filed in 2021 by an anonymous whistleblower under the federal False Claims Act. It alleges that Planned Parenthood affiliates continued submitting Medicaid claims in Texas and Louisiana after those states moved to terminate the organization as a provider following investigations that began in 2015. 

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton joined the case in 2022. ---More...

Planned Parenthood Abortion Biz Will Close Two Centers in New York

America’s biggest abortion business is closing two centers in the state of New York, drawing cheers from pro-life Americans.

Planned Parenthood of the North Country New York will close two centers that kill babies in abortions by the end of the year, citing financial pressures that include the loss of federal funding last year.

The organization announced Sept. 28 that the centers in Ogdensburg at 419 Ford St. and Lowville at 7398 Turin Road will cease operations Dec. 31. Abortion customers will be redirected to remaining locations in Canton and Watertown or to expanded telehealth services that sell women the dangerous abortion pill.

“This decision was not made lightly,” said Crystal Collette, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of the North Country New York. “For years, we have worked to protect patients amid escalating political attacks and a changing healthcare landscape to preserve access to care. Recent federal funding attacks and ongoing instability have made that approach no longer sustainable — not just for Planned Parenthood, but for healthcare systems across the North Country.” ---More...

Texas Democrats File Bills to Legalize Killing Babies in Abortions

Now that pro-abortion Democrats have taken over all the statewide offices in Texas and the Texas state House, they’re on the warpath to legalize abortions.

Only the Republican-controlled Texas Senate can stop them.

Texas Democrats filed multiple bills this week seeking to repeal or weaken the state’s abortion ban, which protects the lives of unborn children and their mothers.

State Rep. Donna Howard, D-Austin, introduced House Bill 126, which would repeal Texas’ three abortion bans: the 2022 trigger law prohibiting abortion from fertilization until birth, the 2021 Heartbeat Bill (SB 8) banning abortion when an unborn baby’s heartbeat is detected, and the 1925 pre-Roe ban. ---More...

On Veteran’s Day, Democrats Want to Force VA Hospitals to Do Abortions

In anticipation of Veterans’ Day, Oregon State Attorney General Dan Rayfield announced that he and other Democrats are pushing for a reversal of a pro-life rule that currently limits the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) from performing abortions, except in the case of a medical emergency.

In 2025, the Trump administration reinstated a VA policy that had been in place from 1999 to 2022. The policy excluded abortion procedures and abortion counseling from the services the federal department may provide. The Biden administration upended that policy in 2022, allowing the VA to perform abortions “if determined needed by a health care professional, when the life or the health of the pregnant veteran would be endangered if the pregnancy were carried to term or the pregnancy is the result of an act of rape or incest.” These broad, vague categories contain loopholes permitting VA medical providers to perform elective abortions. ---More... 

Texas Town Becomes 102nd City in America to Ban Abortions

Another city in Texas has adopted an ordinance banning abortions. On Monday, November 9, 2026, the City Council of Plains, Texas (pop. 1,355) reconsidered an ordinance adding further prohibitions on elective abortions and abortion trafficking, as well as declaring the City of Plains a ‘Sanctuary City for the Unborn.’

While the council first considered the measure at its meeting on Thursday, October 15, 2026, it had been tabled for one month for further review by the city council and greater community input.

After much discussion at the November meeting, Mayor Rodney Guetersloh asked the council for a motion. Councilman Jaime Williamson moved to adopt the measure, with Mayor Pro-Tem Steven Lopez seconding. The vote was 4-1. Councilmembers Karen Redman-Williams and Justin Etsy joined Williamson and Lopez in voting for the measure, while Councilwoman Cynthia Thomason voted against it.

After the vote, Councilwoman Thomason made it unmistakably clear that she is 100% pro-life and against abortion, but was not comfortable voting for the ordinance due, in part, to how the law was designed to be enforced. ---More...
