The Florida Legislature allocates $4 million a year of taxpayer funds to the Florida Pregnancy Support Services Program to coerce pregnant people from seeking abortion services. Anti-abortion pregnancy centers receive the majority of taxpayer money through this program and in direct contravention of the law, it appears these centers proselytize while advancing medically inaccurate and dangerous information, all to pressure a pregnant person to carry their pregnancy to term.
Until taxpayers can be assured that these centers conform to ethical standards of licensed medical facilities, offer sound medical advice, and do not lead to harm, the state of Florida should refrain from directly or indirectly funding anti-abortion pregnancy centers.
