Crisis Pregnancy Centers are fake abortion clinics. These “health centers” masquerade as healthcare providers but exist to confuse and manipulate pregnant people with the goal of preventing them from learning about or accessing abortion services.

These “clinics” provide medically inaccurate information about abortion. Additionally, they often refuse to provide evidence-based contraceptive choices to their patients, such as oral contraceptives, IUDs, or condoms—the very tools that help prevent unplanned pregnancy. Fake, anti-abortion clinics, or Crisis Pregnancy Centers, engage in manipulative tactics to prevent people from making informed choices.

Worse yet, at least 16 states devote hundreds of millions of dollars (taxpayer money) to fund them. Following the overturning of Roe, there was a surge in funding fake clinics. And about half of those states distribute federal money intended to help low-income people and families to the centers.

Much of these funds could actually go towards providing REAL, needed health care, especially to low-income people and families. Our state governments should be promoting public health, not funding sneaky, manipulative tactics to disrupt reproductive health care access.

We are demanding states stop funding these fake clinics immediately and prioritize funding public health instead of disregarding the need for life-saving reproductive health care.

Sign the petition: State governments must immediately stop funding fake abortion clinics and prioritize taxpayer money for public health and access.
