(LifeNews.com) – The Obama administration is coming under more fire from pro-life advocates for blocking Texas’ plan to run a women’s health initiative without funding the Planned Parenthood abortion business.

On Monday, the Obama Administration refused to renew funding for Texas’ Women’s Health Program (WHP) because of new state rules that disqualify abortion business affiliates from participation. The WHP encompasses Medicaid family planning services for low income women. The program started through authorizing legislation in 2005 and was renewed in the recent 82nd Legislative Session with new pro-life rules.

The Texas legislature voted to cut Planned Parenthood and about $64 million in taxpayer funding from the program and direct the funding instead of women’s health initiatives that do not include abortion. But the Obama administration turned down a request from Texas to run its Title X family planning program that way.

“President Obama has proven time and again that he will exert whatever force necessary to ensure that his abortion ally Planned Parenthood continues to receive taxpayer subsidies,” said Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. “This includes brazenly defying the will of states to make their own decisions as to where they send taxpayer funding. Once again the most pro-abortion President in our country’s history has shown his allegiance to Planned Parenthood is unwavering.”

(By Susan Tyrrell) –  The question I have is where all those millions of dollars of federal funding go if they routinely kick pregnant women out the door.  Annual exams, sure, maybe, but $7 million worth? What about all that profit for a nonprofit? We know that uninsured girls like Addison still get charged full price for some services. Birth control? Maybe, but when an agency is receiving millions of dollars and calls itself a vehicle of women’s health care, it should be caring for all women not just the ones who choose abortion.

There’s a disconnect here between what Planned Parenthood says and does, obviously. I looked at its Houston website, where Addison visited, and the information on their own page. They list insurance programs accepted, including the Texas Women’s Health Program, but when you click on it for more information, the link only redirects back to this page. Instead of getting information on the Texas program that would help people like Addison, what you get is a link to another Planned Parenthood page of propaganda which tells you the political stance of the angry pro-abortion group at having their funding  cut, but no information on the uninsured getting help in the Texas program. That may be because Planned Parenthood has had its funding cut from the state of Texas. (By the way, if you are in need of services in Texas, you can click here for information from the state, who is still providing for all women).
