The Title X Family Planning Program was created in 1970 to fund reproductive health and contraceptive services and remains the federal government’s only dedicated source of family planning funding. Since his first term in office, Trump and his administration have repeatedly targeted the Title X Program, most recently by changing the application process for funding. **Clare Coleman**, President and CEO of the National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Association (NFPRHA), joins us to talk about what the latest funding announcement means for Title X and its grant recipients, and the lawsuit that NFPRHA, the ACLU, and FHCCP are pursuing against the Trump administration’s blatant contradiction of the Title X statute. Title X-funded programs provide contraceptive services, STI and pregnancy testing, and other crucial preventative and reproductive health services. The new funding announcement changes the process of applying for Title X grants, undermining Title X’s statutory mission by giving political appointees the power to decide who even gets considered for funding. This politicization of family planning resources promotes the President’s narrow agenda and poses a threat to the millions who rely on Title X-funded clinics and resources.

Merch Store & Housekeeping1:14 – 3:32

Jennie WetterHost

1:14

So y'all, I'm gonna start the episode with a little bit of housekeeping, mostly because I finally went and ordered a couple things from our Bonfire store.

Jennie WetterHost

1:22

I mean, I have ordered things in the past, but I just ordered some new things that came, and I was so excited.

Jennie WetterHost

1:28

I got a tank top with the microphone design that says, "rePROs Fight Back, a podcast on all things repro." I love it.

Jennie WetterHost

1:36

I had, did not have anything with that design yet, so I'm so excited to have a tank top for the summer.

Jennie WetterHost

1:42

And then I also got a mug that says, "Fund abortion, fight evil." That one has not arrived yet, but I am expecting it any day.

Jennie WetterHost

1:51

So all that is to say, I love my merch that just came, and you should definitely check out our merch store.

Jennie WetterHost

1:57

Jennie WetterHost

2:01

Um, we have some really great designs done by Liberal Jane, and I love them all, and I am slowly adding to my collection.

Jennie WetterHost

2:08

I have a couple T-shirts.

Jennie WetterHost

2:09

I had a bag, but I gave it to somebody, so I need to get myself a new bag 'cause I really love them.

Jennie WetterHost

2:15

They're very cute.

Jennie WetterHost

2:17

So I need to get a new one.

Jennie WetterHost

2:18

So I didn't get that this time.

Jennie WetterHost

2:20

I ended up actually going and getting, uh, a bag from Patient Forward, which you should check out, too.

Jennie WetterHost

2:26

Um, it says, "Abortion bans are totes a scam." Love it.

Jennie WetterHost

2:30

I saw it and was like, "Oh my God, I need this right away." So I didn't get a new repros bag.

Jennie WetterHost

2:35

But I did get that one, so you should check out their store, too.
