Planned Parenthood Sues For Medicaid Funds, Speaker Backs Indicted Doctor

from Inside Utah Politics with Lindsay Aerts

The federal government cannot withhold Medicaid funding from Planned Parenthood for at least the next two weeks, after a district court judge issued a temporary restraining order the same day Planned Parenthood filed a lawsuit alleging that they were being singled out and punished for providing abortion services. Planned Parenthood of Utah acting president, Shireen Ghorbani outlines why she believes the case will succeed. Plus, panelists Taylor Morgan and Rusty Cannon weigh in on Utah’s House Speaker, Mike Schultz, rallying on behalf of a Utah plastic surgeon who, along with three others, is facing multiple federal charges for an alleged scheme to provide fake vaccine cards, inject saline into his minor patients, and destroy thousands of dollars’ worth of Covid-19 vaccines. Plus, they weigh in on what could change in Utah after a major decision from the IRS allowing churches to endorse candidates from the pulpit and keep their tax-exempt status.
