KFF brief explains the legal
challenges to new Title X regulations
A
new KFF brief provides an update on the legal challenges to the
Trump Administration’s new Title X family planning program regulations. These
regulations make many changes to the program; notably they disqualify family
planning providers who also offer abortion services with non-Title X funds
from participating in the program and also ban Title X funded sites from
referring patients to abortion services. Attorneys general from 23 states,
major family planning organizations, individual providers, and the American
Medical Association have sued HHS on the grounds that these regulations
violate providers’ freedom of speech, create barriers to patients accessing
care, impede timely access to services, as well as other constitutional and
procedural arguments. The brief details the status of the litigation in
different federal courts and explains the key positions of the plaintiffs and
the Trump Administration.
Filling
the need for trusted information on national health issues, the Kaiser Family Foundation is
a nonprofit organization based in San Francisco, California.
