BOISE, Idaho (LifeSiteNews) – Abortion provider Planned Parenthood is closing its oldest Idaho clinic, which performed surgical abortions.
On June 1, Planned Parenthood closed its Boise clinic as part of a closure of five clinics in the region, leaving only two remaining Planned Parenthood clinics in Idaho, as reported by The Spokesman-Review.
Spokesperson for Planned Parenthood Great Northwest, Hawaii, Alaska, Indiana, Kentucky, Katie Rodihan said this decision came after “a comprehensive review of all of our health centers and patient needs across all six of our states.”
Rodihan blamed the U.S. Supreme Court’s “likely overturning of Roe v. Wade,” for prompting the review. Now, Idaho will have two remaining Planned Parenthood abortion clinics: one in Meridian and one in Twin Falls.
The Boise clinic was the only Planned Parenthood clinic in the state to perform surgical abortions. Surgical abortions are a form of brutal murder as unborn babies are torn piece by piece from their mothers’ wombs.
Planned Parenthood also plans to start offering so-called “gender-affirming care” in Idaho using telemedicine, according to The Spokesman-Review.
