Planned Parenthood is closing five clinics in northern California after losing Medicaid funding thanks to President Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill.”
Planned Parenthood Mar Monte, the abortion giant’s largest affiliate in the country, shuttered five locations near the Bay Area on Thursday, saying the bill forced their hand.
The clinics that are closing are all near the Bay Area — located in San Francisco, San Mateo, Gilroy, Santa Cruz, and Madera.
“We really feel like we are in the fight of our life,” said Stacy Cross, president and CEO of the Mar Monte affiliate, which serves California and Nevada.
“I’ve been a Planned Parenthood CEO for 24 years at three separate affiliates, and I can tell you this is really the hardest it’s been in my entire life,” Cross said.
