It's possible it will happen, though. And IMO that's scary. Federal funding isn't used for abortions but PP and other organizations like it provide birth control, STD testing, and prenatal care cheap. That's a big deal for those without healthcare.

It's not sensationalism, it's awareness.
Just because you don't agree with abortion doesn't mean you have to try to shut the story down.
And alumiyum is right, think of how much is lost if this does push through.
If somehow, you need help and have no insurance, you will have hardly any to no other alternative if Planned parenthood is gone.

I said nothing about shutting the story down. In fact, I think it would be terrible for PP to lose funding, since they are a birth control provider. Less access to birth control = more "birth control" abortions.
However, your link title is false...that's what I'm objecting to. This has only passed the House and still has to go to the Senate. They have not yet lost federal funding.

Then all you needed to say was "DS can you please fix the title."
And it's done.
