From the looks of it, their reversal told the real story and more will be revealed. I am curious to see how this plays out. Organizations are not perfect, so their response moving forward will give me a clear picture of their commitment women’s health.

Barbara, thanks for writing. I will need to read more about this decision before i can give an informed answer. Based on what you wrote, the ramifications of such a cut off wasn’t thought through, entirely.

I am wondering how you feel about the decision of Susan G Kormen organization to cut off funding to Planned Parenthood. From my own experience and work I know that the women who use Planned Parenthood are often poor and women of color. And now because of the religious and political beliefs of the administrators of Susan G Komen these women are being cut off from care. In the name of God, poor women are being denied help with cancer by this organization. Why would you ever raise money for them? Are they setting up clinics for this population or are they just discriminating against poor women.
