Excerpts from article:
...The 7-4 ruling by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned decisions issued by judges in Washington, Oregon and California.
...The court had already allowed the administration's changes to begin taking effect while the government appealed those rulings.
...The rules ban taxpayer-funded clinics in the Title X program from making abortion referrals and prohibit clinics that receive federal money from sharing office space with abortion providers - a rule critics said would force many to find new locations, undergo expensive remodels or shut down.
...Judges in all three states blocked the rules from taking effect, with Oregon and Washington courts issuing nationwide injunctions.
...Planned Parenthood has already left the Title X program over the new rules, giving up about $60 million a year in federal funding.
