Outlets disagree on this: The existing cluster states the OBBBA provision defunding Planned Parenthood expired July 4, 2026, which is consistent with claim 13856. However, claim 13855 describes the provision as defunding 'facilities that perform abortions' more broadly, while the existing cluster specifies it applied through 'Medicaid' — a potentially narrower framing. No direct incompatibility warrants full contestation; no newly_contested entry needed.
