Wade, abortion rights advocates are looking at a time when funding cuts could spell the closure of clinics and the limiting of reproductive access in Ohio and nationwide.\n<\/p> <p> But local advocates are also resolute in saying health clinics will continue to serve Ohioans, and fight to maintain the rights in the state.\n<\/p> <p> The federal budget reconciliation bill is still being debated, but one provision that has been included would <a href=\"https:\/\/19thnews.org\/2025\/05\/planned-parenthood-medicaid-house-measure\/\">\u201cdefund\u201d Planned Parenthood<\/a>, which the organization says could mean the closure of 200 clinics across the country.\n<\/p> <p> Funding under <a href=\"https:\/\/ohiocapitaljournal.com\/2025\/03\/28\/risk-to-federal-family-planning-grants-could-spell-danger-for-ohio-clinics\/\">Title X \u201cfamily planning\u201d grants<\/a> could be slashed as well, which would also impact reproductive health clinics.\n<\/p> <p> Alexis McGill Johnson, president and CEO of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, called the measure a \u201cbig bad betrayal of a bill\u201d in a Tuesday news call, and said the funding cuts in the bill \u201cwould make it harder, if not impossible, for everyone, everywhere to get an abortion.\u201d\n<\/p> <p> Since the 2022 Supreme Court decision in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supremecourt.gov\/opinions\/21pdf\/19-1392_6j37.pdf\">Dobbs v. Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization<\/a> moved the issue of abortion legality to the states, Ohio has passed a constitutional amendment that in 2023 placed the right to abortion into the state\u2019s founding document, making abortion legal up to viability, as determined by a physician. The measure passed with 57% of voters that November.\n<\/p> <p> But the newest state operating budget, which could be approved by the General Assembly this week, could cause more limits to abortion services via a provision related to Medicaid.\n<\/p> <p> The House and Senate both brought along a measure from Gov. Mike DeWine\u2019s executive budget that would eliminate the Medicaid expansion group from the state\u2019s program if the federal budget contributes less than the 90% it\u2019s paying currently.\n<\/p> <p> Should that contribution drop even 1%, the state budget states the expansion group, which policy experts say <a href=\"https:\/\/ohiocapitaljournal.com\/2025\/04\/08\/child-health-programs-including-even-pediatric-cancer-research-see-cuts-in-ohio-house-budget-draft\/\">accounts for about 770,000 Ohioans<\/a>, would be dropped from their health insurance.\n<\/p> <p> That would represent 30% to 50% of patients who go to Cincinnati-area Planned Parenthood clinics just to obtain birth control, according to Nan Whaley, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio Region.\n<\/p> <p> For other services, like health screenings, primary care services, specialist referrals, and abortion services, Whaley said patients who lose their Medicaid coverage likely \u201cwill go nowhere.\u201d\n<\/p> <p> \u201cIt\u2019ll make Ohio less healthy, it\u2019ll make abortions go up in Ohio,\u201d Whaley said. \u201cWhat\u2019ll happen is the opposite of what (legislative and congressional Republicans) claim to want.\u201d\n<\/p> <p> While clinics will still be able to provide services to those with commercial insurance, the idea that the most vulnerable Ohioans will be without health care strikes advocates even more than threats to their existence that they\u2019ve experienced many times before.\n<\/p> <p> \u201cThere aren\u2019t enough words for \u2018unacceptable,\u2019 and every Ohio congressperson should be voting \u2018no\u2019 and should be fighting for their constituents,\u201d said Lauren Blauvelt, executive director of Planned Parenthood Advocates of Ohio. \u201cThere\u2019s no cost-savings in taking away people\u2019s insurance.\u201d\n<\/p> <p> For Planned Parenthood and other reproductive health clinics, being the target of potential funding cuts and disapproval by elected officials who oppose abortion rights is nothing new.\n<\/p> <p> \u201cAll providers and most non-profits are under attack in a way that they\u2019re not use to in this environment, but we\u2019re used to this,\u201d Blauvelt said.\n<\/p> <p> Clinics are working to continue providing as much care as they can, including providing and hoping to expand virtual health care.\n<\/p> <p> Lexi Dotson-Dufault, executive director of the referral and resource service Abortion Fund Ohio, said her team is beginning to work with telehealth providers, in an effort to expand services and in anticipation of clinic closures, but more importantly so pregnant individuals can get questions answered.\n<\/p> <p> \u201cPeople are still confused about what care they can access in Ohio, where they can get that care, who\u2019s there to help them access that care,\u201d Dotson-Dufault said.\n<\/p> <p> Once the budgetary decisions have been made, abortion rights advocates are also preparing for another fight: the <a href=\"https:\/\/ohiocapitaljournal.com\/2025\/06\/20\/ohios-pro-abortion-rights-groups-plan-fights-against-total-abortion-ban-bill\/\">total abortion ban bill<\/a> that was recently introduced in the Ohio House.\n<\/p> <p> While Dotson-Dufault, Whaley, and Blauvelt emphasized the unconstitutionality of the bill, which would seek to undermine the reproductive rights amendment, they aren\u2019t taking it lightly.\n<\/p> <p> Blauvelt said she remembers when the six-week abortion ban didn\u2019t have the full support of the legislature or pro-life advocates, but then ended up being signed into law before it was struck down in court.\n<\/p> <p> \u201cOur supporters are not backing down, we are focused and we take this threat seriously,\u201d Blauvelt said. \u201cWe expect our lawmakers to do better.\u201d\n<\/p> <i>Originally published by the <a href=\"https:\/\/ohiocapitaljournal.com\/2025\/06\/25\/ohio-planned-parenthood-health-clinics-brace-for-closures-plan-fight-ahead\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ohio Capital Journal<\/a>.
