Just like David killed Goliath, the underdog pro-life movement has toppled a pro-abortion giant. Planned Parenthood, America’s massive multi-billion dollar abortion giant, has closed its flagship abortion center in New York City.
The announcement came earlier in the year; now, the truth is, it's officially closed.
The thousands of hours pro-life Christians have spent standing outside the building, praying and counseling those who would listen, have seen their prayers answered.
Be informed, not misled.
The announcement came earlier in the year, but Troy Newman of Operation Rescue tells LifeNews that the abortion center has officially closed.
“As of this month, the Margaret Sanger Planned Parenthood Center in New York City — the very abortion mill that once sued me and Operation Rescue for $18 million — has closed its doors for good,” he said.
“This facility was once Planned Parenthood’s flagship, a symbol of the abortion industry’s arrogance and power. Now, it stands silent. God has turned their weapon into dust,” Newman added. “That abortion mill is on the ash-heap of history — where it belongs.”
While pro-life advocates are celebrating, Newman knows the battle to end abortion is just beginning.
“Even while we celebrate this triumph, the abortion cartel is shifting tactics, going online, and mailing abortion pills. We must stay vigilant, investigating, exposing, and dismantling their deadly network,” he explained. “Please take a moment to thank God for this powerful victory.”
Indeed.
43 Planned Parenthood Abortion Centers Have Closed This Year.
The Planned Parenthood abortion business has released a new report that details the closures that have happened since Congress passed and President Donald Trump signed a law defunding the abortion company.
That means good news for the majority of Americans who are pro-life and don’t want their tax dollars going to an abortion agency that kills babies.
Over 40 Planned Parenthood abortion centers shuttered their doors this year, a direct result of the Trump administration’s successful defunding efforts that severed taxpayer support for its business.
The "new report" sounds like the last gasp of a dying person.
This summary is included in the report:
State lawmakers commit emergency stopgap funding to continue patient care.
With political attacks coming from every direction, it is more important than ever for state lawmakers to support Planned Parenthood health centers, given their role as an irreplaceable provider of care.
As of November 2025,state leaders in California, Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, and Washington have taken action to stabilize services and help protect access to care for patients who need it. While select state leaders are doing what they can to protect Planned Parenthood patients from the actions of the Trump administration and its backers in Congress, more is needed to solve our worsening public health crisis in the long term.
Even before the loss of Medicaid reimbursements and Title X funds, Planned Parenthood health centers were facing the same, and greater, challenges as other providers due to a deeply broken health care system, including low reimbursement rates from insurers; rising costs of providing care; a lack of state and federal funding for people with the greatest need; and a shortage of providers and clinical staff.
Lawmakers have an opportunity to do more than just patch holes, and must use this moment to build toward a system that centers sexual and reproductive health care and advances health equity.
The report also makes this claim: "Planned Parenthood is an irreplaceable part of the U.S. health care system: 64% of Planned Parenthood health centers are in rural or medically underserved areas or areas with health professional shortages."
"Planned Parenthood health centers are often the only trusted provider for many patients. Since July 4, Planned Parenthood has worked tirelessly to mitigate the cruel consequences for patients who rely on federally funded health care programs like Medicaid," they say.
Planned Parenthood and the media are misleading the public.
Via Live Action:
While the mainstream media is quick to push the abortion agenda by blaming pro-life laws, the actual reasons for maternal care deserts are complex, and coming up with real solutions will prove elusive so long as the media narrative ignores the truth.
Lack of available maternity care is not caused by pro-life laws.
The new standard media narrative has made these closings about pro-life laws. For example, in March of 2023, the shuttering of a maternity ward in Idaho made headlines when a press release blamed its closing on the state’s new pro-life laws. However, the same statement gave many more reasons – many of which were actually measurable, such as low patient volume and thus low demand. Yet media outlets peddled their preferred narrative, claiming an unequivocally direct connection between the closing and the state’s pro-life laws, while practically ignoring other reasons.
However, given how few OBGYN physicians perform abortions, there is little evidence that pro-life laws are causally related to maternity care deserts.
The fact is, the closure of maternity wards is not a problem only for states with pro-life laws. According to the March of Dimes, these voids exist in abortion-friendly states – the problem isn’t laws, but population density. Dr. Zsakeba Henderson of the March of Dimes pointed out the discrepancy between the number of obstetricians and where they choose to live and practice. “The number of obstetric providers (meaning obstetricians and certified midwives) in the U.S. actually increased — by 1.7% — between the 2020 and 2022 reports, Henderson says. But only about 7% of providers serve rural areas,” reports NPR.
Takeaway
And yet still the media uses circular logic to push the pro-abortion narrative. An ABC report claims that “people living in maternity care deserts without access to abortion may have to continue a dangerous pregnancy or one they don’t want, and may also struggle to find the care they need during that pregnancy and delivery.” The article goes on to claim that “abortion and maternity care aren’t unrelated […] because it takes the same clinical skill set to provide abortion care as it does to respond to things like miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies.”
Here, the logic is both circular and not based on fact.
Making abortion more widely available in maternal care deserts reduces demand, and therefore makes it less appealing for OBGYNs to move to these maternal care deserts. And the fact that most OBGYNs do not perform abortions belies the claim that somehow having abortion access will help provide better access to maternal care. Induced abortion isn’t health care and is not medically necessary. No experience with abortion is required to give a physician the skills needed to address maternal care shortages, including in critical areas like miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies – both of which involve treatment, and not the direct and intentional killing of a preborn baby.

Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.”
