U.S. Representatives Jen Kiggans (VA-02) and Rob Wittman (VA-01) voted to slash Medicaid and block care at Planned Parenthood. They knew the harm - and did it anyway. PPAV is in this fight with you and we will never stop until everyone has the access to the health care they need and deserve.

The Senate just voted to take away your health care and “defund” Planned Parenthood. It's a political attack that could shut down nearly 200 health centers and strip abortion access for everyone, everywhere. Make no mistake, Planned Parenthood will never stop fighting to protect access to care.

I am honored to again receive the endorsement of @ppava.bsky.social. I am proud to have voted for the Reproductive Freedom Amendment, and will again in 2026. Virginians should be able to make decisions about their reproductive health with their doctors, and I will fight for that right.

The fight isn’t over. Right now, Congress is considering a bill that would block people with Medicaid coverage from Planned Parenthood health centers nationwide, regardless of where they live, and would leave over eight million people uninsured.

Today, the Supreme Court issued a ruling in Medina v. Planned Parenthood, stripping South Carolinians with Medicaid of their right to seek care from the provider of their choosing. (1/5)
BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled that South Carolina can block access to Planned Parenthood through Medicaid. This is a direct attack on people who rely on Planned Parenthood for essential health care — many of whom have lower incomes or are from historically marginalized communities.

The US Supreme Court's ruling to uphold Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming health care for youth is devastating and wins lawmakers more power over people's lives. Read the statement from PPTNM President and CEO Ashley Coffield at www.plannedparenthood.org/planned-pare...

“Defunding” Planned Parenthood keeps patients from getting the care they need. Speaker Mike Johnson and his allies are trying to shut down Planned Parenthood health centers, pushing their political agenda instead of protecting people’s access to essential health care. Join us ➡️ ImForPP.org

Let's be clear: "Defunding" Planned Parenthood hits everybody's pockets. It wouldn’t save money, and blocking people from getting care at health centers means fewer services, higher costs, and a greater burden on our health care system. @ppava.bsky.social
