Hillary Clinton told activists to "fight back" on Friday after a federal judge ruled that the Trump administration could bar Title X providers from offering abortion services.
Clinton tweeted Friday morning that the move was part of a widespread GOP effort to roll back abortion rights across the country and warned that it would extend to all reproductive health care, not just abortion.
"The attack on Title X is not isolated. Its clear that politicians who oppose reproductive health care are coming not just for abortion access, but all reproductive health care. It's up to all of us to fight back. #ProtectX," she tweeted.

Clinton's comments came a day after a federal court in California ruled that a so-called "gag rule" which bars health care providers that receive funds under certain Title X provisions from discussing abortion was constitutional.

First they fight abortion, birth control is next,
Then comes sex if youre not married, finally, out goes sex!
Put the prayers back in the schools, install "parochiaid,"
Allow for corporal punishment, and then you got it made!
Chorus: Were going back, back to the good ole days
When men were really men and women knew their place
Back, back a couple of centuries
And welcome back the days of the theocracy!
2. The family is so holy, there must be no divorce
And if a wife is not content, she must adjust, of course
And if hes forced to beat her, its all for her own good
She must know what her limits are, as any woman should.,
(chorus)
3. The next to go is daycare,
its all a commie plot!
What could be more fulfilling than a child, wanted or not?
A womans world is housework, God wanted it that way
A salaried job degrades her since she never works for pay
(chorus)
4. They teach us womens lot is "love honor and obey"
And while their crusty notions seem like jokes to us today,
Theyre sitting in the Capitol, theyre voting on our lives
If we dont stop them soon, our freedom will not long survive!
Alt chorus:
No going back, back to the bad ole days...
When men were really masters and women were their slaves
let's go ahead, ahead for future centuries,
And build a world thats based on true democracy
And build a world thats based on true equality!
Ah person!
