I will fight to: Increase Title X and Family Planning Block Funding
Increase Title X and family planning block funding.
Occurrences
Evidence
The enacted FY2026 appropriations text provides $286,479,000 for the Title X family planning program: "For carrying out the program under title X of the PHS Act to provide for voluntary family planning projects, $286,479,000."
Goodlander said she joined 100 colleagues urging HHS to reinstate Office of Population Affairs staff, warning that cuts would undermine Title X and threaten health care access for millions.
Assessments
Goodlander showed same-term effort by joining colleagues to press HHS on Title X administration and family planning access. However, the cited enacted FY2026 appropriations maintained Title X funding at $286.479 million rather than increasing it, and the record does not show an increase in Title X or family planning block funding attributable to her. Because there was advocacy but no delivered funding increase, the promise should be scored as not fulfilled with an effort badge.
