Overnight Healthcare: No Planned Parenthood cuts in GOP funding bill thehill.com bottom line: no PP funding cuts excerpt: By Sarah Ferris and Peter Sullivan - 12/02/15 06:03 PM EST Republicans have not included any measures related to defunding Planned Parenthood in their most recent offer to Democrats on the spending bill, according to a Democratic aide. But Republicans argue that they are not abandoning their efforts to eliminate federal funding for the organization, even if it won't be part of this month's funding bill debate. A GOP aide pointed out that a separate bill repealing ObamaCare that is expected to get a vote in the Senate on Thursday does defund Planned Parenthood. "The fight over Planned Parenthood is focused on the Senate and the reconciliation process," the GOP aide said. That legislation will not become law, however, as President Obama is certain to veto it if it reaches his desk. Republicans do not have the votes to override Obama in the House or Senate. The issue of defunding Planned Parenthood has faded since the summer, when it was brought to the fore by the release of undercover videos denouncing the group.
