Texas Monthly has an interesting post about Texas Senator John Whitmire (D-Houston) and his fight to save funding for Planned Parenthood.

Regardless of how you personally feel about Planned Parenthood it does provides more than funding for abortion services.
Unfortunately, a lot of people can’t see past that controversial issue.
Lot’s of women go there for low cost or free services: annual exams, contraception and to seek help after becoming a victim of a sexual assault.
