Today, a U.S. appeals court reversed a previous ruling that barred the state of Arkansas from halting Medicaid funding to Planned Parenthood, after the release of setup videos secretly recorded by anti-abortion, hard-right media provocateurs.

Raegan McDonald-Mosley, the chief medical officer for Planned Parenthood of America, said in a statement the fight to preserve a woman’s right to choose “is not over.”

“We will do everything in our power to protect our patients’ access to birth control cancer screenings, and other lifesaving care,” said McDonald-Mosley.
