Planned parenthood should be funded by the United States government. Far right Republicans nowadays are quick to chant “Defund Planned Parenthood!”, but however, they don’t look at quite all of the facts and all of the benefits Planned Parenthood has to many American people. Breast cancer screenings and other women’s health issues are a majority of what planned parenthood does. The government should fund the organization because people who cannot afford the valuable resources that Planned Parenthood provides would be unable to get the treatment they need without help from the government.
