Trump Tells Planned Parenthood He'll Keep Federal Funding If It Stops Performing Abortions

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- President Donald Trump told Planned Parenthood he will maintain federal funding if the group stops providing abortions.

Planned Parenthood rejected the offer.

It notes that federal law bars government funds from being used for abortions.
