Texas Alliance for Life’s executive director Joe Pojman told me the Obama administration’s rules barring states from directing tax dollars away from an entity based on whether it performs abortions are flawed. “Hopefully under the Trump administration, that will be rectified,” he said. “In the meantime, it’s very clear that Texas should be able to exclude providers who violate state and federal laws.”

“It is unconscionable that our tax dollars, federal and state tax dollars, would go to Planned Parenthood when they are apparently engaging in Medicaid fraud. Breaking laws regarding the sale of the tissue and organs of babies who die from abortion,” Pojman said.

Joe Pojman, executive director of the Texas Alliance for Life, said state programs offer higher quality health care to Texas women than Planned Parenthood. “Women will not see a doctor at Planned Parenthood unless they are there for an abortion,” Pojman said. “Planned Parenthood runs the largest chain of abortion facilities in the state. Women deserve better health care than Planned Parenthood is willing or able to offer, and now, in Texas, they will be able to receive it from thousands of other providers.”

“When any woman goes into a doctor’s office, the doctor says congratulations you are pregnant with a baby,” Pojman said. “That is the way doctor’s talk to women who are pregnant and that’s the kind of language the brochure uses, and so we think that’s a strong point.”
