Poll Finds 54% of Americans Want Planned Parenthood Defunded

A poll commissioned by the Susan B. Anthony Fund finds that 54% of Americans do not want family planning dollars going to organizations that perform abortions. Importantly, 43% strongly oppose use of taxpayer dollars in this manner while only 20% strongly support.

The Polling Company results reveal the following:

• 82% of those who are pro-life oppose this funding
• 26% of those who are pro-choice oppose this funding
• Women oppose by a 51-40% margin
• Latinos oppose by a 47-45% margin
• African-Americans oppose by a 62-26% margin
• Independents oppose by a 52-36% margin
• Ages 18-34 oppose by a 54-38% margin
• Republicans oppose by a 77-20% margin
• Democrats oppose by a 55-38% margin
• Those in the 35-44 age range were the only age category in support of funding Planned Parenthood

In summary, there is broad support in America as a whole and in key demographic populations to strip Planned Parenthood of the over $360 million it receives in federal and state taxpayer dollars each year. The survey interviewed 1,000 Americans with a margin of error of +/- 3%. Read poll results here.
