A Texas judge has temporarily blocked the state from excluding Planned Parenthood and its affiliates from its Medicaid program, the organization stated.
The temporary restraining order, issued by a Travis County judge, was granted after Planned Parenthood affiliates filed an emergency request to the state court on Feb. 3 to prevent Texas from going through with its decision to withhold federal funding to Planned Parenthood clinics, which provide wider access to abortion, birth control, and other procedures.
