Komen reinstates Planned Parenthood funding

From NPR

After days of controversy, the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation has said it will reinstate funding for Planned Parenthood.

Earlier this week, the foundation moved to discontinue funding of breast cancer screening by Planned Parenthood. The Associated Press reported the change came because of a new Komen policy forbidding grants to organizations under official investigation.
