Raleigh, NC — Today, the North Carolina House of Representatives passed Senate Bill 378, “Align Medicaid Eligibility with Federal Law,” which prohibits Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood.
Senate Bill 378 brings North Carolina into compliance with the recently enacted “One Beautiful Bill,“ which requires the state’s Medicaid program to remove Planned Parenthood as an approved provider.
Rep. Dean Arp said, “Senate Bill 378 makes clear that public dollars will no longer flow to abortion providers like Planned Parenthood, ensuring our Medicaid program focuses instead on health care providers who offer comprehensive care for women without undermining the values of North Carolinians.”
Rep. Neal Jackson said, “Senate Bill 378 ensures that our Medicaid funds support real healthcare rather than organizations that profit from abortion. By partnering with community clinics, we’re expanding access to care while keeping our commitment to North Carolina families and the unborn.”
