The Supreme Court will consider South Carolina's appeal to cut Medicaid funding to Planned Parenthood, marking a significant abortion-related case post-Roe v. Wade.
Gov. Henry McMaster claims any public funding to Planned Parenthood indirectly supports abortion services, despite Medicaid not funding abortions unless in specific circumstances.
The 4th U.S. Circuit Court ruled that federal law allows Medicaid patients to choose their healthcare providers and to sue if their rights are violated.
Planned Parenthood serves hundreds of Medicaid patients in South Carolina, providing essential health services such as birth control, cancer screenings, and STD testing.
