As previously reported and explained, PLANNED PARENTHOOD funding was present in Section 33 (DHHS) of Senate Finance Comm Report, because of ineffective Proviso 33.25, which did NOT ban Planned Parenthood funding now, but only “once the federal (court) injunction is lifted.” That is version of State Budget which SC Senate took up for debate April 17:

‘PLANNED PARENTHOOD funding STILL in SC State Budget as full Senate to begin budget debate Wed, April 17’

SC House/SC Senate Finance Comm ineffective Planned Parenthood defunding Proviso 33.25:
(scroll down to Section 33 DHHS):

Part 1B (Provisos)
Section 33
Proviso 33.25
(DHHS: Family Planning Funds)

On April 18, the SC Senate could have adopted Governor McMaster’s effective Planned Parenthood defunding Proviso 33.24:

(page down to page 327):

However, instead, without adopting Governor McMaster’s effective Proviso 33.24, SC Senate adopted a revised version of ineffective Proviso 33.25 as proposed in Senator Cash’s Amdt No. 79, still ineffective insofar as stopping Planned Parenthood funding for now:

(Search for “No. 79”):

SC Senate Journal for 4/18/2019

So the language adopted by SC Senate on April 18 of revised Proviso 33.25 contained in Section 33 (DHHS) of State Budget STILL contains PLANNED PARENTHOOD FUNDING for now.
