The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Planned Parenthood South Atlantic an't sue the state over its closing off of the nonprofit's Medicaid funding because it provides abortions.

The court, in a 6-3 decision, ruled that patients don’t have a right to sue states that disqualify Planned Parenthood, a financial blow to the abortion provider.

The Supreme Court says states can block the country’s biggest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, from receiving Medicaid money for health services such as contraception and cancer screenings.
