Tennessee Faith and Freedom Coalition Condemns Redirection of Title X Funds to Planned Parenthood in the Volunteer State

The Tennessee Faith and Freedom Coalition (TNFFC) released a statement Wednesday condemning the Biden administration’s redirection of Title X funding from the Volunteer State to Planned Parenthood.

Title X “provides grants to public and nonprofit agencies for family planning services, research, and training,” according to the Congressional Research Service.

Earlier this year, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HSS) informed Tennessee that it would no longer provide long-standing Title X funding after the state passed an abortion ban and required healthcare providers to only share information “regarding all options that are legal in the State of Tennessee.”

Now, according to reports, Planned Parenthood of Tennessee and North Mississippi is partnering with a direct Title X grantee to obtain federal funding instead of the state’s health department.

“The Biden Administration, unhappy with Tennessee’s status as perhaps the most Pro-Child state in the country, is continuing its war on Tennessee’s sovereignty by sending previously denied Title X funds to Planned Parenthood,” the TNFFC released in a statement. “This move is yet another example of the Biden Administration’s pursuit of a Marxist agenda and the threat that Marxism poses to the state of Tennessee.”

The group cited reporting from The Tennessee Star earlier this year surrounding Planned Parenthood executives hosting a training session for Marxist activists that included plans for disrupting the August Special Session, disabling ICE vehicles, and staging protests in Nashville.

“Thank God that those plans were made public and the proper officials notified,” the TNFFC noted, adding, “We have to ask the obvious question, will those taxpayer funds continue to be used to fund similar types of radical Marxist organizational meetings? There’s no way – once those funds are distributed – to stop that.”

Yes, Every Kid

The TNFFC asserted, “Roe v. Wade is dead and the world is better for it. Women deserve better than abortion. Now it is up to the states to decide their own laws and policies on abortion. The Biden Administration ought to respect that, but sadly they spend their days shredding the Constitution.”

“While there is close competition between the 1st and the 2nd, it appears that the Biden Administrations favorite part of the Constitution to shred is the 10th Amendment,” the TNFFC said.
