Pardon my French, but the 'Defund PP!' attempt is just fucking stupid. PP doesn't get a fat check delivered to them on a silver platter by the gubmint. They are reimbursed for ICD-9 charges just like every other hospital and clinic in the nation (except those who do not bill insurance and/or Medicare). Even a placekicker from byu should be able to comprehend that. I can envision the politicians who keep pushing this trope covering themselves in white ash, spraying chrome paint on their mouths, and screaming, "Witness Me!! " a la the War Boys in Mad Max:Thunder Road.
Witness Me!
Sancho hit it on the mark, the right got distracted by the shiny thing and went for the defund PP, when it was a real opportunity to show just how deplorable late term abortion really is.
Ted Cruz has a lot of responsibility for that. He's an egotist and most of the positions he takes are for his own political benefit. Yes, almost all politicians are like that but he takes it to the extreme. Shutting down the government is a stupid thing to do, for example, but it energizes his base so he makes that his hobby horse. This last time around the adult Republicans in the room shut him down instead.

But many places don't have other clinics that cover those things.
PP also will charge on a sliding scale for those who don't have the ability to pay. This is especially important in the states that have refused to expand Medicaid. (See Utah)

I just stumbled on this damn thread. Makes me want to use forceps to crush that damn doctor's calvarium. What a callous bitch she is.

Congress establishes a committee to investigate abortion providers. This committee will spend a lot of time and money and will build a lot of political capital for politicians, and will ultimately come to the same conclusion as the 12 state committees, AGs, and medical ethics boards. Nothing illegal happened and medical ethics have not been violated.
PP needs to get better at PR.

That article is woefully short of detail.

It is the same with hazardous waste. About 15 years ago there was a scandal in Utah where a company was found dumping oil in the West Desert. Apparently they gathered used oil from auto parts stores, dealers, lube centers, etc, and were being paid to take it for 'recycling'. They were digging a hole in the ground and dumping it.
Well when people would drop off waste oil at the local auto parts store they would collect some info from them. Guess who the EPA was threatening to fine for dumping the oil? They wanted to hit the original 'producers' of the various hazardous waste streams. Thus means every shade tree mechanic who dropped off 5 quarts at Autozone was at risk.
Fortunately the state was able to sort it all out, otherwise thousands of people potentially could have been fined thousands of dollars each for the actions of one bad actor.
The waste disposal company should take a huge hit in this. They should also be investigated for the disposal of other medical waste. Chances are very good that they improperly disposed of plenty of other things, since it must be cheaper to chuck it in the garbage than to incinerate it.
