Is There A New Title X In Town? Jul 04, 2019

Show notes

This week on Versus Trump, Jason and Charlie are joined by guest host Alexandra Brodsky to discuss the Ninth's Circuit's recent decision that let go into effect major new regulations for the primary federal program dealing with family planning and women's health—a program known as Title X. Right as this podcast went to press, though, the full Ninth Circuit agreed to hear the case again, so this troubling decision may be undone. So enjoy our analysis, but know the issue is far from decided.

Also, Happy Independence Day!
