Texas Attorney General Sues Planned Parenthood for Unlawfully Pocketing $10M of Taxpayer Money
“Planned Parenthood took advantage of Texans, violated medical standards, & lied.” Abortion giant Planned Parenthood is again under the spotlight in Texas, this time for reportedly withholding public money they should’ve paid back to the state Medicaid program.
In a lawsuit this week, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said the business received and kept roughly $10 million from the state program even though they are no longer a “qualified Texas Medicaid provider by operation of Texas law.”
