How Many Abortion Clinics Have Closed Because of Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’

Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell •   August 14, 2025

A provision in President Donald Trump’s “One Big, Beautiful Bill” has caused more than 30 Planned Parenthoods to close—with more closures on the horizon.

In the bill, House Republicans removed Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood, the largest provider of abortions in the country. The effort had been supported by dozens of pro-life legislators from around the country.

Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America released an interactive map tracking Planned Parenthood’s closures in the wake of the bill, which was signed into law by Trump on July 4. The tracker also points women to community health centers within a 50-mile radius where women on Medicaid can receive life-affirming health care.

While 34 Planned Parenthoods have closed their doors, seven have announced they will soon.

“The One Big Beautiful Bill’s provision defunding Big Abortion is not even fully in effect and still 41 Planned Parenthoods have closed or will close soon,” SBA President Marjorie Dannenfelser said. “Imagine how many more will shut down once they stop receiving half a billion dollars in Medicaid money.”

“By Planned Parenthood’s own account, our victory stopping the forced taxpayer funding of abortion businesses could cause up to 200 facilities to close,” she continued.

At the end of July, a federal judge ruled Planned Parenthood clinics nationwide must continue to be reimbursed for Medicaid funding. The Trump administration condemned the injunction as “illogical and incorrect.”

“It is orders like these that underscore the audacity of the lower courts as well as the chaos within the judicial branch,” White House deputy press secretary Harrison Fields told The Daily Signal. “We look forward to ultimate victory on the issue.”
