The Trump administration's Title X "Protect Life Rule" took several steps to prevent abortion businesses from taking Title X family planning funding. Organizations that accepted funding could no longer commit abortions, refer patients to abortions, or co-locate with organizations that commit abortions. As a result of the rule, Planned Parenthood (which previously received hundreds of millions of dollars through Title X each year) opted out from Title X funding.
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a challenge to the rule, but the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals permanently enjoined its enforcement.
