The Susan G. Komen Foundation will still donate to Planned Parenthood, the foundation announced on Feb. 3, despite having just cut off support to the organization.

“We want to apologize to the American public for recent decisions that cast doubt upon our commitment to our mission of saving women’s lives. We have been distressed at the presumption that the changes made to our funding criteria were done for political reasons or to specifically penalize Planned Parenthood. They were not,” president and founder Nancy Brinker said in a statement, ABC News reports.

“Our original desire was to fulfill our fiduciary duty to our donors by not funding grant applications made by organizations under investigation. We will amend the criteria to make clear that disqualifying investigations must be criminal and conclusive in nature and not political. That is what is right and fair,” the statement continued.

Komen pulled funding from the family planning organization seemingly under political pressure, sparking a huge backlash after the announcement was made.

Planned Parenthood needs your help — and Scarlett Johansson and Gwyneth Paltrow want your voice to be heard as the nasty budget battle rages in Washington!

A bitter dispute over whether to eliminate Title X – a program enacted in 1970 that provides services like mammograms, HIV testing, birth control at agencies like Planned Parenthood — could shut down the U.S. government at midnight.If Title X gets eliminated then funding for these services will no longer be provided by the federal government.

“A cancer that goes undetected, a sexually transmitted disease left untreated, a woman unable to get the birth control she needs to plan her family and take control of her own destiny,” Scarlett says. “This is the disastrous vision of some leaders in the United States Health of Representatives.”

Republican lawmakers say they will block the overall budget if funding to Planned Parenthood isn’t slashed as part of $30 billion in total spending cuts.

There are more than 800 Planned Parenthood centers across the country. Rachel Bilson, Julianne Moore, and Gabrielle Union are some of the other celebrities who have become enraged over the proposed cuts to Planned Parenthood.
