Arizona has become the latest state to bar funds to Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers. Gov. Jan Brewer signed into law May 4 legislation that prohibits state family planning money from going to organizations that perform abortions. The new law, the Whole Woman’s Health Funding Priority Act, gives priority in family planning funding to health providers that offer comprehensive care for women. In the past year nine states have reduced money for the country’s largest abortion provider by more than $61 million, according to the pro-life Susan B. Anthony (SBA) List.
