Ohio Sen. and Vice Presidential hopeful JD Vance confirmed to reporters that if he and his running mate, former President Donald Trump win their bid for the White House, they would seek to end federal funding for Planned Parenthood. The declarations come as abortion and reproductive rights continue to be an awkward topic for the GOP ticket ahead of November.

"On the question of defunding Planned Parenthood, look, I mean our view is we don't think that taxpayers should fund late-term abortions," Vance said after Trump's rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. "That has been a consistent view of the Trump campaign the first time around. It will remain a consistent view."
