Talk:Title X

Untitled

Hello, I am looking to majorly revise this article to be more comprehensive, detailed, and up-to-date. Please let me know if you have any objections to me modifying the structure of this article and basically starting over (none of the facts included in the current article will be omitted in the revised version). I will wait at least 24 hours before posting the revised article.

Thanks!

Congress link?

I came to this article to fact check a possible claim that Title X was enacted by a Republican controlled congress. Would it be appropriate to add a link to the 91st US Congress article? 47.156.166.140 (talk) 22:10, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

Sterilization

How is the sterilization section connected to Title X? This should be clarified or removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.111.180.244 (talk) 04:23, 17 October 2020 (UTC)

I agree. While it is no doubt forced sterilization is a very important concern, the inclusion here implies that the perpetrator of the sterilization was the Title X act itself. This is not true. The perpetrator was Planned Parenthood and other organizations that received funding through Title X. If you read the text of the 1970 Title X bill, it is very clear that the receipt of all aid must be voluntary and must not be coercive or tied to any other form of aid that the recipient was eligible for. The paragraph in question would imply that the Congress that voted Title X into law had the intent of sterilizing Native Americans. That is just not true.

The sterilization issue should be moved down into "See also". If one doesn't already exist , a new Wiki page should be opened up to document this subject.

By the way (off topic), why isn't a link to the text of the 1970 law provided? I had to go searching for it:

Maybe add a link to Marie Sanchez, too? Dad98253 (talk) 21:07, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

Native American sterilization

The article currently has a non-sentence: " In 1970, the Senate passed Title X unanimously, and the House voted 298 to 32 to pass the bill on to Nixon, who signed it into law the non-consensual sterilization of Indigenous women while in their childbearing years. " It would be good to correct the grammar and provide more detail. 73.235.215.35 (talk) 04:14, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Title X → Family Planning Services and Population Research Act of 1970Family Planning Services and Population Research Act of 1970 – I don't think this is the primary topic; redirect to DAB at Title 10. Also fine with Title X of Public Health Service Act if you think that's a better title. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 18:14, 1 July 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. CoconutOctopus talk 13:00, 9 July 2025 (UTC)

• Oppose. No evidence provided that this is not primary (I don't think…) and certainly none that this is ever styled Title 10 except erroneously. Title X is the common name for the act and the program. Google and DuckDuckGo searches for Title X exclusively return results for this program. Title X has a 13:1 Pageviews lead over Title X of the Patriot Act, the only other article at the DAB with Title X in the name.--MYCETEAE 🍄‍🟫—talk 01:39, 4 July 2025 (UTC)
