Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., is launching a new investigation — this time into Planned Parenthood.
Her DOGE subcommittee is spearheading the probe, and it kicks off Friday. At the center of the inquiry: how Planned Parenthood is using its federal funds.
In a letter sent to Planned Parenthood CEO Alexis McGill Johnson, Greene questions whether the nonprofit is “commingling federal funds and using them for unpermitted purposes.” That would be a violation of the Hyde Amendment, which bans federal money from being used for abortions.
President Donald Trump has doubled down on the Hyde Amendment, issuing executive orders to block federal dollars from organizations offering transgender healthcare to minors. Greene is suggesting that Planned Parenthood is violating both.
“Despite receiving 39 percent of its annual revenue from federal funds intended for essential health services, such as cancer screenings and wellness exams, Planned Parenthood is increasingly using its resources to offer abortions to its patients,” Greene wrote.
She also cited an increase in abortion numbers. “The latest Planned Parenthood annual report shows that it performed more than 400,000 abortions, an increase of 23 percent over the last 10 years,” she noted.
Beyond abortion, Greene is scrutinizing transgender care. The letter accuses Planned Parenthood of offering “gender-affirming care” with “allegedly little to no medical or psychological evaluation.”
She pointed to Planned Parenthood’s own report, which said 45 affiliate centers offer hormone therapy. But Greene claims the group hides other services under broad categories like “other procedures,” making it hard to track what’s really being done.
“Planned Parenthood’s official policy varies by state, but some Planned Parenthood health centers will provide cross-sex hormones to minors as young as 16 years old with parental consent,” Greene added. She also accused the group of “not consistently adhering to its own parental consent policies.”
To move the investigation forward, Greene is demanding key documents. That includes non-public financial statements from January 2020 through June 2025, lists of affiliate centers, informed consent forms, and more.
That timeline notably includes June 2022, when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and sent abortion policy back to the states.
Republicans have long criticized Planned Parenthood for allegedly misusing taxpayer dollars — despite laws meant to prevent it. Greene’s investigation comes just weeks after House Republicans passed Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” which blocks federal funds for groups that provide abortions.
Supporters of Planned Parenthood argue it remains a vital provider of women’s healthcare, especially since the fall of Roe.
