I got my GAC from PP for five years. The thought of any clinic abandoning trans people when they’re the most accessible and sometimes only option for entire States is infuriating. If they comply this will genuinely be a notable decline in the quality of life for trans people all over the United States, especially outside the big cities.
Planned Parenthood is extremely NGO-ified. It technically has two wings, one for medicine and one for political lobbying / propaganda, but the latter provides so much funding for the former that it might as well be the parent organization.
So PP will, unfortunately, go in whatever direction it believes will get it funding, which has historically been lobbying and integrating with the Democratic Party. That “party” is not exactly stepping up for trans people so I’m pessimistic. I wouldn’t be surprised of Dems went TERF soon.
