(The Center Square) – Planned Parenthood received $832 million in taxpayer funding in 2024-2025, an increase of $39.8 million from its previous report. A record number of abortions also were performed by the organization.
President of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America Marjorie Dannenfelser told The Center Square that “taxpayer dollars should never be used to fund Planned Parenthood, a business that profits off of killing hundreds of thousands of unborn children every single year.”
“Planned Parenthood is an abortion business, not a health care provider, and they have no business using our tax dollars to prop up their operations,” Dannenfelser said.
“Further, women deserve quality, comprehensive care while Planned Parenthood brazenly refuses to adhere to basic safety regulations – even lobbying against such requirements,” Dannenfelser said.
SBA Pro-Life America’s education and research arm the Charlotte Lozier Institute published an analysis of Planned Parenthood’s 2024-25 report, revealing that taxpayer funding increased by $39.8 million from the last report.
“Taxpayer funding in the form of government grants, contracts, and Medicaid reimbursements hit $832 million, nearly $2.3 million per day – an increase of $39.8 million from the previous report and representing 39% of Planned Parenthood’s overall revenue,” the analysis said.
Charlotte Lozier’s analysis said that “taxpayer funding is reported by Planned Parenthood’s affiliates” and these affiliates’ information “lags behind the national office and covers fiscal years ending in 2024, before Planned Parenthood was defunded of Medicaid dollars in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in 2025.”
The analysis also noted that an increase in tax money given toward Planned Parenthood is not new to the past couple of years.
As stated by Charlotte Lozier, “Planned Parenthood’s taxpayer funding has increased by 50% since 2014.”
For reference, according to the Heritage Foundation, from 2013 to 2015 $1.5 billion in taxpayer funds was given to Planned Parenthood.
Planned Parenthood also received $728.2 million from “private contributions,” which is “up 6% from the previous report.”
Furthermore, Planned Parenthood performed a record breaking number of 434,450 abortions in 2023-2024 on the taxpayer’s dime while its advertised healthcare services’ performance trailed severely behind.
Planned Parenthood’s service data is behind the rest of its report, which is why the year noted is 2023-24, Charlotte Lozier said.
As Charlotte Lozier Institute’s senior research associate Tessa Cox told The Center Square: “In 2023-24, Planned Parenthood performed more abortions than pap tests, miscarriage care, preventive and primary care visits, prenatal services, HPV vaccines, examination and treatment of abnormal cervical cells (including LEEP, colposcopy, and cryotherapy procedures), and diagnostic procedures for cancer treatment and prevention (including biopsies, samplings, and other gynecological surgeries) combined.”
For reference again, according to the Heritage Foundation, from 2015-2016, Planned Parenthood performed 328,348 abortions.
Cox told The Center Square: “Planned Parenthood’s focus is abortions, not health care.”
The analysis stated that in the report it’s shown 97 percent of the time “women seeking help related to their pregnancy at Planned Parenthood were sold an abortion rather than given prenatal care, provided care for a miscarriage, or helped to make an adoption plan.”
“Prenatal services, miscarriage care, and adoption referrals accounted for only 1.7% (7,685), 0.6% (2,852), and 0.7% (3,038) of these services, respectively,” the analysis showed.
