Abortion providers and advocacy groups like Planned Parenthood received nearly $2 billion in federal taxpayer funds between 2019 and 2021, per a newly released government report that Republicans called “truly shocking.”

“The results of the study have just now come out—and they are truly shocking,” Sen. Marsha Blackburn said in a statement on Dec. 12, the day that the Government Accountability Office (GAO) published a report detailing the amount in federal funds sent to abortion groups and providers over just a three-year period.
