Missouri is facing a “defunding” of Planned Parenthood. What does this mean? Low-income patients, both old and new, who rely on Medicaid could lose access to hundreds of providers across the state.

According to PlannedParenthoodAction.Org, 
“Planned Parenthood in Missouri provides
high-quality, affordable health care and education to 50,000 women, men, and young people each year.” 
​
Those who receive any preventive care, such as  birth control, cancer screenings, annual exams, and STI testing and treatments, will be left with nowhere to go if this measure becomes law.
