Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas announced its plans to open an abortion facility in Lubbock, Texas, after initially keeping the project hidden. Planned Parenthood has utilized this tactic before, discreetly building abortion centers within communities before the neighborhoods can voice objections. Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas operates out of 23 locations in the state, but there have been suspicions dating back to 2018 that Planned Parenthood has been looking to expand its West Texas abortion services.
