A review conducted by the Pennsylvania Family Institute found that eight Planned Parenthood locations in the state specifically advertised “Prenatal and Postpartum Services” that they don’t actually provide.
PA Family reported making calls directly to Planned Parenthood Keystone’s call center, which manages scheduling for several of these locations, and confirmed that none of its clinics offer prenatal care.
They report that “similar confirmation was obtained from the Pittsburgh-based affiliate, Planned Parenthood of Western Pennsylvania.”
PA Governor Josh Shapiro is leading twenty-two states and the District of Columbia in a lawsuit to try to force taxpayers to continue to fund the abortion mill. The lawsuit follows the passage of President Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill,’ which includes a one-year ban on federal tax dollars going through Medicaid to entities like Planned Parenthood that provide abortions except for exceptions such as rape, incest, or threats to a mother’s life.
Shapiro has continued to push this false narrative saying recently on X, “This unconstitutional decision threatens to close vital health care centers and deny Pennsylvanians essential, lifesaving care such as cancer screening and prevention, family planning services, and prenatal and postpartum care.”
Today, I’m suing the Trump Administration alongside 22 other states to stop them from unlawfully defunding Planned Parenthood, which will rip away healthcare from thousands of Pennsylvanians.

PA Family reports:
This isn’t the first time Planned Parenthood has been caught misleading the public in this way. In 2017, Pennsylvania Family Institute exposed that all 27 Planned Parenthood locations in the state were listing prenatal care as a service online, despite none actually offering it. Following the exposure and media attention in 2017, Planned Parenthood quietly removed the listings from their appointment pages. However, now 8 years later, they appear to be back.
Dan Bartkowiak, Chief Strategist for Pennsylvania Family Institute, issued the following statement:
“Planned Parenthood is once again misleading women in Pennsylvania by advertising services they don’t actually provide. We called their facilities directly. Contrary to their advertising, not one Planned Parenthood in PA offers prenatal services. Zero.”
“This isn’t just sloppy marketing—it’s bait-and-switch. It’s the same deception we caught them using back in 2017. They removed it then. Now it’s back.”
“It is clear: Planned Parenthood’s business model isn’t about supporting women, it’s about selling abortions. Taxpayer dollars shouldn’t be funding an organization that continues to mislead the public and manipulate vulnerable women.”
