Rand Paul (R-KY) prepares to hear Secretary of State Antony Blinken testify during a Senate Foreign Relations Hearing to examine the United States withdrawal from Afghanistan on Capitol Hill on September 14, 2021 in Washington, DC. (Photo by Jabin Botsford \u2013 Pool\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 2:40 PM PT \u2013 Wednesday, September 22, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul (R) has doubled down on the fight against the Small Business Administration\u2019s illegal funding of Planned Parenthood. Under the Trump administration last year, officials found the SBA illegally gave dozens of Planned Parenthood branches about $80 million in loans from the Paycheck Protection Program. The SBA asked the organization to give back the loans after determining that they were ineligible, but some branches refused.<\/p>\n<p>In an exclusive interview with One America News earlier this year, Sen. Paul said Planned Parenthood continued to illegally obtain PPP loans under the Biden administration. Paul said he would not give up on the fight to hold the SBA accountable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re going to keep on this, we\u2019re going to pursue this. We don\u2019t think that Planned Parenthood should be getting any taxpayer dollars, but certainly they shouldn\u2019t be getting COVID relief money that\u2019s not legally destined for them,\u201d Paul told OAN\u2019s John Hines.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Sen. Paul and Republican members of the Small Business Committee have sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and SBA leaders, requesting their help in recovering the funds. The Small Business Committee is also attempting to stop a vote on the SBA\u2019s nominee for deputy administrator until the agency takes action.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/report-thousands-of-haitian-migrants-being-let-into-u-s-despite-biden-admin-claims\/\">Report: Thousands Of Haitian Migrants Being Let Into U.S., Despite Biden Admin.
