this is a massive tax break to the top 2%, $300 billion and hundreds of billions of dollars more in tax breaks for drug companies and insurance companies. that s what it was. it is not a health care bill when you throw 24 million people off of health insurance, thousands of whom will die, when you defund planned parenthood. these guys talk about choice all of the time, but they re telling 2.5 million women they don t have the choice to continue going to planned parenthood. they talked about defending the working class of this country. that s what trump talked about during his campaign. they re going to raise premiums very significantly for older workers. they re going to cut medicaid by some $800 billion. and then you talk about the process. health care is one-seventh of the american economy. how many hearings do you think these guys had?
comfortable. planned parenthood is not allowed to use federal money for abortions. there are 15 states that do. megyn: the argument is that money is spongeable. it s not spongeable. they would have to bill the federal government or medicaid. once you close down those clinics. in texas if you defund planned parenthood 20% of women in texas will be without the health services they need to survive. i think this is about women s health. yes, that s not accurate. the hyde amendment there is wiggle room for rape or intest.
investigated the undercover video that showed planned parenthood admitting to selling the body parts of aborted babies. the conclusion of the panel, in a 471-page report, said that planned parenthood should lose funding for a variety of reasons. that is no surprise, as most republicans abhor that organization. for the record, planned parenthood receives about $450 million in taxpayer money each year. joining us now from los angeles, leslie marshall. i am not sure whether president-elect trump will pursue this. if he does, planned parenthood may be in big trouble financially, leslie, right? oh, absolutely. without question. it goes beyond that, bill. first of all, i would agree, i m not sure that president-elect donald trump would pursue this because he has been on different sides of the issues regarding planned parenthood and the campaign. but as you have pointed out, it s not always what he says, it is what he is going to do. you have said in the past. look, when we look at planned
it does. bill: they can t use the money directly, but there are referrals.s. look, i mean, the stats are unbelievable.or for every 20 abortions planned parenthood sets up, there is one adoption. i mean, it is 20 to 1. so everybody knows this is an abortion if you are looking for an abortion, planned parenthood is a primary place to go. and so that is the beef. but why don t you make a prediction? is donald trump going to get into this brawl? because if he doesn t get into it, it is not going to go anywhere. does, then legislation to defund will absolutely come up. is he going to do it? i think yes. because, as you know, the republicans are saying they are going to defund obamacare, by the way, we are going to defund planned parenthood on the heels of that. bill: he would be demonized as antiwoman, you know it is going to happen if he does. you think he still will?
