Richard Madaleno: Supported Planned Parenthood when Feds tried to cut

We need a governor who will protect reproductive rights without equivocation. When Washington tried to force Planned Parenthood out of business I introduced a new law guaranteeing that Maryland will reimburse Planned Parenthood for the health care services it provides here. This ensured that young people, and especially young women of color, will keep access to primary care, mammograms, cancer screenings, birth control, medical advice, and abortions.
