Students for Life Action and nearly 40 pro-life groups sent letters to four of Trump's top officials on September 9, 2026, urging them to investigate Planned Parenthood and, if evidence supports, to debar it from federal contracts, effectively cutting off its federal funding without needing a Senate vote. This move follows reports of Planned Parenthood receiving $832 million in government funding, performing a record 434,450 abortions in one year, and allegations of Medicaid fraud and improper receipt of Paycheck Protection Program loans, with legal actions and investigations ongoing.
Students for Life of America and Students for Life Action have campaigned for nearly two years to end taxpayer support for Planned Parenthood, delivering tens of thousands of petitions and organizing nationwide events to pressure the Trump Administration to defund and debar the organization.
