"The administration has no authority to hijack this critically important program by omitting FDA-approved birth control and focusing instead on chronic disease prevention and treatment."
"With Title X, Congress gave HHS a clear mandate: support access to a broad range of medically approved family planning methods."
The Department of Health and Human Services updated Title X guidelines, emphasizing family formation and healthy pregnancies while omitting birth control. The new guidance promotes natural family planning methods and claims birth control has negative side effects. This change aligns with a conservative agenda outlined in Project 2025, which seeks to redefine family planning. Critics argue that the administration is overstepping its authority by neglecting FDA-approved birth control and focusing on chronic disease prevention instead of comprehensive reproductive health care.
