Republican leaders press a stopgap funding plan as House conservatives threaten to block any bill funding Planned Parenthood. A reconciliation route could end federal funds to Planned Parenthood while a separate bipartisan package would keep the government open, with Obama likely to sign. Leaders aim to avoid a shutdown as Oct. 1 nears and plot further anti abortion measures in coming weeks.

Iowa GOP pressuring defunding of Planned Parenthood amid Medicaid links
Branstad pushes to cut funding via indirect channels as Iowa has no direct contracts or abortion funding with Planned Parenthood. Critics cite national videos on fetal tissue and urge state action while noting Iowa hosts over 200 non Planned Parenthood clinics offering broader care. DHS data shows Iowa's Medicaid program reimburses 43 000 providers with nearly 16 million spent on family planning including Planned Parenthood.
