Ohio Governor and Republican presidential candidate John Kasich signed legislation on Sunday that defunds Planned Parenthood. The bill diverts 1.3 million in funding. Critics turned out to be correct when they speculated that Kasich would wait until after Saturday's South Carolina presidential primary to sign the measure. Planned Parenthood says the legislation cuts an agency program aimed at reducing infant mortality at a time Ohio struggles with higher-than-average rates, will leave thousands of women without testing for HIV and sexually transmitted diseases and will hurt anti-domestic violence programs.
