You've misread the chart. Your statement is baloney. It's 3% of total services provided involve abortion, and that is not by definition 3% of the budget.

So, let's recap the facts:

Is Planned Parenthood a massive abortion provider? No. Less than 3% of it's services involve abortion, the vast majority of Planned Parenthood services are abortion prevention You know - like the name! "Planned" babies! So Planned Parenthood's major services decrease abortions by preventing pregnancy.

Is Planned Parenthood funded only by US government tax dollars? No - only a small extent.

Do US tax dollars fund abortions? No. That's illegal. US tax dollars have not funded one abortion since the Hyde Amendment, and they don't fund any abortions at Planned Parenthood.

The majority of people getting abortions at Planned Parenthood? They are white
