Letter: Push to spur marriage rates while undermining Planned Parenthood is self-defeating

(Bethany Baker | The Salt Lake Tribune) Planned Parenthood is seen next to the Pregnancy Resource Center of Salt Lake City on Monday, Feb. 5, 2024.

You can’t have it both ways — pull Title X money from Planned Parenthood and push marriage and pregnancy. We women and men who want to plan a family need the services of Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood provides affordable pre-marriage STD testing and treatment, help with sexual and reproductive concerns, pregnancy testing and planning, prenatal and postpartum services, wellness and preventive care and vaccines.

By pulling Title X money from Planned Parenthood you are forcing Planned Parenthood offices to close and essentially throwing the baby out with the bath water!
