The majority of voters in three Senate battleground states are opposed to defunding Planned Parenthood, according to a poll requested by the group released Monday. Nearly 7 in 10 voters in New Hampshire, Ohio and Pennsylvania said they disagree with a GOP-backed campaign to eliminate federal funding for the women’s health provider amid an undercover video controversy.

The fallout from sting videos targeting Planned Parenthood is growing in Florida. Gov. Rick Scott ordered the Agency for Health Care Administration to inspect the 16 Planned Parenthood clinics in Florida, and three of the clinics were cited for performing second trimester abortions when only licensed for first trimester abortions. Another was cited for not following procedures labeling fetal tissue. Health News Florida reporter Abe Aboraya spoke with WMFE's All Things Considered host Crystal Chavez. (Aboraya, 8/10)

As part of the GOP's ongoing fight against Planned Parenthood, poor, uninsured women in Texas will soon be unable to obtain government-subsidized breast and cervical cancer screenings at the organization's clinics. In an effort to boot Planned Parenthood from the joint state-federal Breast and Cervical Cancer Services program, Texas lawmakers wrote a provision into the state budget to prohibit clinics affiliated with abortion providers from receiving taxpayer funding for breast and cervical cancer screenings. That state budget takes effect Sept. 1. (Ura, Daniel and Busch, 8/10)
