Congresswoman Marcia L. Fudge Statement on Trump Cuts to Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program
August 3, 2017

WARRENSVILLE HEIGHTS, OH - Today, Congresswoman Marcia L. Fudge (OH-11) released the following statement regarding recent cuts to Cuyahoga County's Teen Prevention Program:

"I am deeply concerned about recent cuts made to 80 teen pregnancy prevention programs nationwide, including one administered by the Cuyahoga County Board of Health. Students in seven school districts in the 11th Congressional District depend on the Cuyahoga County Teen Pregnancy Prevention program.

"Trump's cuts will have devastating effects on our region.  Taking funding away from the schools which need it the most is mean, detrimental to our students, and could endanger our youth for generations to come.”
