News and commentary about Planned Parenthood
Planned Parenthood Should Not Receive Federal Tax Dollars!
Planned Parenthood receives more than $300 million each year from the federal government and state governments for its
"family planning" activities. Planned Parenthood's annual report says it has a nearly $1 billion budget and gets
one-third of that money from government grants and contracts. Planned Parenthood, however, is also the largest killer
of unborn babies through abortion in the nation. By its own admission, Planned Parenthood exterminated more than a
quarter million babies last year! In addition, various affiliates of Planned Parenthood are under investigation for
numerous illegal activities.
Planned Parenthood Scandals Spread.
In Kansas, the Planned Parenthood clinic is facing 107 felony and misdemeanor charges … for a variety of alleged
crimes that include falsifying medical records and performing abortions past the date permitted by state law.
In addition, the clinic faces charges of covering up statutory rape cases involving underage girls.
Kansas Legal System Protects Planned Parenthood.
The situation in Kansas is extremely fluid and legal maneuverings are taking place nearly every day on the criminal prosecution of
Planned Parenthood by Johnson County D.A. [Phill] Kline. The Kansas Attorney General and Kansas Supreme Court seem to be
working together to forbid a key judge from testifying on behalf of Kline in his prosecution of Planned Parenthood. The
A.G. was also trying to get abortion records back from Kline's office apparently in order to sabotage his case against Planned
Parenthood.
Planned
Parenthood Puts A Hit Out On Black Children. Planned Parenthood has a public face that says they
are supporting the rights of women to assert their reproductive rights. Unfortunately, recent investigations
and reports suggest that this organization is actually peddling death in an aggressive and unethical manner.
In Kansas the organization is under criminal investigation for falsifying documents and performing late term
abortions. It faces 23 felony counts. Planned Parenthood has also dealt in the realm of deception
concerning the age of its customers. In Ohio, Planned Parenthood is being sued for failing to report the
rape of a 16-year-old by her father.
[ ... and the feminists are totally silent.]
Aborting the
Truth: Deception behind taxpayer funded-abortion clinics. A nationally recognized
organization may be intentionally distributing false information while protecting rapists and child
predators. And the federal government has given them $3.9 billion since 1987 in taxpayer funds.
Planned Parenthood has been caught in a tangled web. The spotlight is finally being shed on this
organization, which has failed to legally report the pregnancies of a 16-year-old who was raped by her
father, of an 11-year-old girl who was impregnated by her stepfather, and of a 15-year-old who was
sexually assaulted and impregnated by her stepfather's friend.

Kansas Planned Parenthood Scandal Rolls On.
The scandal in Kansas involving a Planned Parenthood clinic and official government corruption is probably one of the most
unreported stories in recent history. The Kansas media has been dutifully misreporting the scandal and its implications,
while the so-called mainstream media (MSM) outside of Kansas appears committed to ignoring it altogether.
The Racism and Politics of Planned Parenthood.
Planned Parenthoods across the nation are strategically placed in low-income, highly African-American populated
areas — where poor women are more likely to have access. In fact, 62.5% of PP clinics are located
in these communities and when you include Hispanic neighborhoods, the number increases to 70%.
Planned Parenthood Slush Fund. The
Planned Parenthood Federation of America is a near-billion-dollar organization, the nation's number one abortion merchant,
and maybe the world's largest as well. It is also a major consumer of tax dollars, more than $300 million in 2006,
with the Democratic Congress poised to give them even more.
Planned Parenthood Sues to Strike Down Missouri
Abortion Law. Planned Parenthood filed a lawsuit Monday [8/20/2007] seeking to strike down a new
Missouri law that it claims could eliminate abortion services in large parts of the state by subjecting clinics
to stringent state oversight.
Pro-life advocate blasts lack
of inspections of abortion clinics. The head of American Life League's "Stop Planned Parenthood"
division says many abortion facilities aren't inspected as often as the law calls for. Jim Sedlak says
this shows that the elected officials who claim to support women's rights have no concern for women's rights,
not to mention the rights of unborn children.
Planned
Parenthood Reports Record Abortions, High Profits. Despite a drop in donations and the first
fall in income from clinics in its history, the nation's biggest abortion provider made a high profit last
year, thanks to the American taxpayer. Pro-lifers want this to stop.
Planned
Parenthood: Dialing for death. In a recent press release, Planned Parenthood Federation of
America (PPFA) announced that it would be "giving customers the power to make a difference with every [cell
phone] call they make." Tragically, however, when Planned Parenthood talks about making a difference,
we know it's the difference between life and death.
Planned
Parenthood Blamed for Woman's Death. A California woman has filed a medical malpractice and
wrongful death lawsuit against Planned Parenthood, alleging that the abortion provider contributed to her
daughter's death.
There were 91,700 Abortions
in New York City in 2004. For every 100 babies born in New York City, women had
74 abortions in 2004, according to newly released figures that reaffirm the city as the abortion
capital of the country. … [Planned Parenthood]'s Margaret Sanger Center in Manhattan is the
largest abortion provider in New York, with 11,000 abortions performed a year.
Poor Planned Parenthood?
As much as liberals decry major corporations that act as if they're above the law, there's always quiet
when the subject is Planned Parenthood, America's No. 1 corporate provider of abortions. During
its 2005-2006 fiscal year, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America performed a record 264,943 abortions,
reported a tidy profit of $55.8 million — and received a record high in taxpayer funding of $305.3 million.
This is one corporation the media hold in the highest regard.
Planned
Parenthood Threatens to Sue Undercover Activist. Planned Parenthood of Los Angeles is threatening
to sue a student pro-life activist who recorded an abortion clinic employee encouraging her to lie about her
age to avoid being reported as a victim of statutory rape. Lila Rose, an 18-year-old sophomore at the
University of California Los Angeles, is the founder of a pro-life magazine on campus. In March, she
entered a Planned Parenthood of Los Angeles (PPLA) clinic, posing as a pregnant 15-year-old and said her
boyfriend was 23 years old.
Abortion Provider Caught Encouraging
Minor to Lie About Age. Planned Parenthood is under fire after one of its employees was recorded
encouraging a student — who was posing as a pregnant minor — to lie about her age in order
to obtain an abortion without the abortion provider having to report the "statutory rape" to the police.
Undercover
double standards. Where are the muckraking champions when you need them? Intrepid Lila Rose
has learned the hard way: Not all undercover journalists are equal.
Portland Development
Commission looks beyond abortion, OKs clinic. In a controversial vote before a standing-room crowd, the city
of Portland gave its OK on Wednesday for Planned Parenthood to relocate its regional headquarters to a city-owned lot along
Northeast Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
Abortion Debate Rages
in Chicago Suburb. The name of the company applying for the building permits sounded like just
another firm. On paper, the brick structure looked much like any other medical complex. Then it was
revealed that the company, Gemini Office Development, is a subsidiary of Planned Parenthood — and
that the building would include space where abortions would be performed.
Planned
Parenthood Federation Names A New President. Cecile Richards, a liberal political activist
and the daughter of former Texas Gov. Ann Richards, is the new president of the Planned Parenthood
Federation of America.
Why
are we paying for Planned Parenthood? Planned Parenthood has received in the last two
years — that they've reported — over $500 million in taxpayer money. America
needs to wake up to this disturbing fact! On one hand, Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion
provider in America, is funded in large part by our hard-earned tax dollars. This money is allocated
from Congress. Then Planned Parenthood turns around and sues Congress for passing a law
banning partial-birth abortion.
Will Holly Patterson Die in
Vain? Eighteen-year old Holly Patterson entered a Planned Parenthood clinic on a Wednesday
expecting to safely abort her pregnancy. Within one week, she was dead.
Administration
Files Appeal in Partial Birth Abortion Case. "Planned Parenthood is fully
prepared to go back to court to ensure that this dangerous abortion ban never harms American
woman," said Planned Parenthood President Gloria Feldt said in a statement. She
called the partial birth abortion ban a "transparent act of hostility toward women's
health, the right to medical privacy and the Supreme Court of the United States."
 The
Blackmun Wall: a listing of the women killed by legal abortions. Abortion clinic
operators like Planned Parenthood like to pretend that the decision
written by Justice Blackmun made abortions safe and legal, but the truth is
that making abortion legal never made abortion safe. Abortionists are the
bottom-feeders of the medical profession and abortion procedures jeopardize the
health of the mother in order to terminate pregnancy. "Safe legal abortions" killed
every one of the women on this site.
Put up
or shut up. It isn't really surprising that Planned Parenthood and the abortion
industry are attempting to hide the facts. They've been doing so ever since the existence
of the procedure [partial-birth abortion] became known. They first claimed that no such
procedure existed. When that collapsed, they argued that the fetus was killed by the
anesthesia administered to the mother. When anesthesiologists protested, they admitted
that this wasn't true — but that the procedure was so rarely performed it wasn't worth
talking about. And when that lie was exposed, they urged that it was only done to save
the life of the mother or in cases of severe fetal deformity. None of those statements
was true. Now they are saying partial-birth abortions are being performed to save the
health of the mother. Let's see the proof.
Pro-Abortion
Group Partners With Local Library System: A financial agreement
between Planned Parenthood of Central Texas and the City of Waco has enabled the
pro-abortion group to incorporate its agenda into the local public library
system. The Planned Parenthood library also warns patrons that it can
deny access "to anyone who has participated in protests," against the group.
Planned
Parenthood Celebrates 30 Years Of Abortion: Pro-abortion protesters gathered outside the
U.S. Supreme Court Wednesday [1/22/2003] to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the court's Roe v. Wade decision
legalizing abortion throughout pregnancy, and to warn of what they call President "Bush's war on women."
Defund Planned
Parenthood. This is … a column about a "non-profit," tax-exempt corporation
that rakes in more than a quarter-billion dollars in U.S. taxpayer money every year and boasts of being the
world's largest "abortion provider." It's called Planned Parenthood. It is a disgusting, evil
organization that somehow operates under its own set of rules — unaccountable in any way, shape
or form to the rules and regulations governing other so-called "non-profits."
Black
Pro-Lifers Demand Parties Refuse Planned Parenthood Funding. The Planned Parenthood Federation
of America is expected to spend $10 million this year on voter mobilization, according to The Los Angeles
Times, and its political action committee has donated $60,000 to federal office candidates so far this
year. Planned Parenthood receives a little over $300 million in government grants and contracts,
according to its latest annual report, and its political action fund voted in June "to recommend endorsement
of Senator Obama" for president.
Planned
Parenthood Vows to Help Elect 'Progressive Voices'. The head of the largest abortion provider
in America declared Tuesday [6/13/2006] that she and her organization — which accepts taxpayer
funds — intend to use their resources to "swing the vote" and "help progressive voices win"
elections across the country.
Planned
Parenthood Secretly Buys Land for New Offices. The nation's biggest abortion provider is seeking
to avoid opposition when buying property or building new facilities through secrecy, or what one pro-life
leader called "a series of cover-ups" in such places as Denver, Colo., Portland, Ore., and Aurora, Ill.
Margaret Sanger and the roots of Planned Parenthood
History of America's
Racist Left: Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger spoke at a 1926 Ku Klux Klan rally, used the
"n" word in reference to blacks, and deemed Aboriginal Australians "the lowest known species of the human family, just
a step higher than the chimpanzee in brain development." … Despite all this and more, a friendly historian recently
judged, "Sanger was no racist." … To advocate certain progressive ideas is, for fellow progressives, evidence of innocence.
Dr.
King, Roe v. Wade and Margaret Sanger: Planned Parenthood founder Margaret
Sanger formed the organization to implement the eugenic ideology that prevailed in the
early 20th century. The eugenicists with whom she aligned herself espoused belief,
as Sanger put it, in the "supremacy" and "purity" of certain races of people, notably the
Aryan race. They believed the "fit" should be encouraged to reproduce, while the
"unfit" should constrain their numbers. The "unfit" were the poor, racial minorities
and certain groups of immigrants, and the physically and mentally handicapped. They
sought to accomplish this through sterilization, birth control and, eventually, abortion.
Liberals
Lie, Children Die. It is horrific enough that the purpose in the original founding of Planned
Parenthood was to originally wipe out the future generations of black children. To understand the depth
of the racism Margaret Sanger practiced and believed personally is nauseating. She detailed much of it
for posterity in her own writings.

A Dark Past.
Margaret Sanger, whose American Birth Control League became Planned Parenthood, was the founding mother of the
birth-control movement. She is today considered a liberal saint, a founder of modern feminism, and one
of the leading lights of the Progressive pantheon. Gloria Feldt of Planned Parenthood proclaims, "I stand
by Margaret Sanger's side," leading "the organization that carries on Sanger's legacy."
Abortion as an attempt to exterminate black Americans
Abortion and the Black Community: Minority
women constitute only about 13% of the female population (age 15-44) in the United States, but they underwent
approximately 36% of the abortions. According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, black women are more than
3 times as likely as white women to have an abortion. On average, 1,452 black babies are aborted
every day in the United States.
What Would MLK
Do? Would MLK endorse abortion rights? Perhaps if Barack Obama took the opportunity to hear
Alveda King, MLK's niece, speak on the genocide that abortion has inflicted on the black community, he might
have a change of heart; but as it stands now, Obama has embraced the most radical pro-abortion views of any
post-Roe presidential candidate. Considering Obama's claim to share King's Christian faith, this seems
quite extraordinary. As Alveda King passionately explains, the crime of abortion is quite akin to
slavery: "How can the 'Dream' survive if we murder our children?
Your
Tax Money At Work: Funding Abortions. [The black] community, which aborts babies at three
times the percentage of our population, must be awakened to the fact that Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood's
founder, desired to exterminate blacks because she viewed them as an inferior race. One such statement said,
"We do not want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population." As a result the black
community is disproportionately affected by the posture, placement, and philosophy of this organization.
To add insult to injury, Planned Parenthood receives $305 million a year of federal funding.
Abortion: Black Genocide. "After
reading up on its history, I discovered that the idea of legal abortion was first popularized by a white woman,
Margaret Sanger, who was the founder of the National Birth Control League, which is now known as Planned
Parenthood. Margaret Sanger called for the sterilization of 'genetically inferior races'."
Abortion Industry Decimating Black Community:
Here in the U.S. the number of black abortions is twice the rate of the rest of society. Some black leaders
say those aborted babies are part of a destructive abortion industry that targets blacks more than any other
group.
Black Pastor Compares Abortion to
Slavery, citing "racist" statements from the founder of Planned Parenthood. An estimated
1,452 African-American children are killed each day by the act of abortion. Between 1882 and 1968,
3,446 blacks were lynched in the United States — a number surpassed in less than three days
by abortion.
Abortion
is Causing "Black Genocide," Activists Say. During America's commemoration of Black History
Month, some pro-life activists are charging that legalized abortion has led to a "black genocide" of more
than 14 million unborn African-American babies. They condemn, in particular, the Planned Parenthood
Federation of America…
Black Leadership's Misplaced Priorities: If
you had not noticed the most heralded and prestigious African-American organization in America within the space
of 3 months endorsed the most destructive and decimating practices in the Black community. The NAACP
put there stamp of approval on the practice of infant killing and marriages between men with men and women with
women. Abortion and same sex marriage.
Planned
Parenthood: A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing? Thirteen months ago, UCLA student Lila Rose appeared on
the O'Reilly Factor stating the some Planned Parenthood centers attempt to hide child abuse or statutory rape
by encouraging underage mothers to falsify their ages in order to receive an abortion. Child abuse is not
a reproductive freedom issue; it is an increasing serious problem in the nation today. Should those who
have been entrusted with public funds be allowed to empower sexual predators to hide their crimes?
Pastors Accuse Planned Parenthood for 'Genocide' on
Blacks. The Planned Parenthood Federation of America has perpetuated a "genocide on the black community,"
says a group of African-American pastors who claimed Thursday [4/24/2008] the birth control and abortion provider has had a
racist agenda since its beginnings in 1921. Holding a brief vigil and press conference in front of a Planned Parenthood
clinic in Washington, D.C., the group of pastors and activists said they were incensed by the results of recent "undercover"
inquiries into several Planned Parenthood clinics across the country.
Abortion: The Racist's Most Devastating
Weapon: Planned Parenthood, founded by racist/eugenicist Margaret Sanger, promotes abortion
relentlessly among Blacks. More than 80 percent of Planned Parenthood's sixty efficient abortion
mills are located in areas generally classified as "inner city." These areas possess a very large
proportion of minorities: Usually more than fifty percent. In fact, the number of abortion clinics
in a large city generally correlates closely to the size of that town's minority population. There are at
least fifty percent more abortion clinics per capita in cities that have large minority populations,
compared to those cities with smaller minority populations.
Planned
Parenthood Agreed to Accept Race-Motivated Donations: Planned Parenthood of Central Ohio
confirmed to Cybercast News Service that the telephone conversation with a presumed donor occurred in
mid-summer 2007, adding that it was not the policy of Planned Parenthood to accept donations
Specifically to underwrite abortions among minority women.
Abortion
is Causing "Black Genocide," Activists Say. During America's commemoration of Black History Month, some
pro-life activists are charging that legalized abortion has led to a "black genocide" of more than 14 million
unborn African-American babies. They condemn, in particular, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America…
The Big Lie: In the late
1930s, Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, came up with the idea for the infamous "Negro
Project." Sanger, despite the rosy and saint-like portrait the organization presents of her, was a
frank racist. Judging by her public statements and private letters, the woman thought that
blacks — southern blacks in particular — were simple, child-like brutes whose fertility
needed managing the same way a farmer needs to tend to his breeding stock of sheep or cows.
The
Negro Project: Margaret Sanger's Eugenic Plan for Black Americans. The
disproportionately high number of abortions in the black community is no accident. Many
Americans — black and white — are unaware of Planned Parenthood founder Margaret
Sanger's Negro Project. Sanger created this program in 1939, after the organization
changed its name from the American Birth Control League to the Birth Control Federation of
America. The aim of the program was to restrict — many believe
exterminate — the black population.
Marching
for life and against the "Negro Project". Black women are three times as likely to have
abortions as their white counterparts. Blacks and Hispanics are about 25 percent of the
population, yet they account for 57 percent of all abortions.
Berkeley
preacher calls for blacks to fight abortion. Saying they are faced with a civil
rights crisis that demands immediate attention, African American anti-abortion advocates will
hold three events in the Bay Area later this month in an aggressive push to combat the high
number of abortions among black women. "The abortion issue is huge. It is the Darfur
of America," and it's time to educate the public about it, said Walter Hoye, a Berkeley preacher
who founded the Issues4Life Foundation, a recently formed Union City-based organization intent on
drafting more African Americans into the fight against abortion.
Black Genocide dot org: The purpose of this
website is to reveal the disproportionate number of black babies exterminated by the abortion industry in
America. Although black women constitute only 6% of the population, they comprise 36% of the abortion
industry's clientele. The leading abortion providers have chosen to exploit blacks by locating 94% of
their abortuaries in urban neighborhoods with high black populations. This high rate of abortion has
decimated the black family and destroyed black neighborhoods to the detriment of society at large.
Obama's
Abortion Stance Hurts Blacks, Say Pro-Life Experts. Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) may be riding
what seems to be a perfect wave toward the Democratic presidential nomination, but some African-Americans
say his pro-abortion stance make him a danger to the black community. "Between 1882 and 1962, 3,446
blacks were lynched," says Rev. Clenard H. Childress Jr. on his Web site, blackgenocide.org. "That
number is surpassed in less than three days by abortion." More than 1,400 African-American children are
aborted each day in the United States, said Childress.
Davis murder: Product
of Roe v. Wade mentality? The tragic discovery of the body of Ohio mother Jessie Davis in
a national park in Summit County, Ohio, last weekend has added to the growing list of "hundreds, maybe thousands
of pregnant women who have been brutally killed prior to giving birth," according to the president of the
National Black Pro-Life Union. Day Gardner says it also represents a culture where there's little
regard for human life.
Abortion
Causes 'Hopelessness' in Black Communities, King Says. A recent Pew Research poll reported high
levels of 'hopelessness' in African-American communities across the United States, a characteristic pro-life
activists are linking to high abortion rates among black women.
Planned Parenthood and the Susan G. Komen Foundation
Susan G. Komen Foundation Fact
Sheet: In the United States, there are about 115 Susan G. Komen Affiliates. Of these,
at least 112 sponsor a Race for the Cure to raise money for breast cancer awareness and research.
To date, at least 43 of these Susan G. Komen Affiliates have given grants Planned Parenthood Centers or
other abortion clinics, totaling more than 100 grants given across the nation Planned Parenthood and other
abortion clinics since 1998. … The Susan G. Komen Foundation refuses to acknowledge any possible
link between abortion and breast cancer, going so far as to list abortion first under "Factors not related to
breast cancer" on their website.
Breast Cancer Research Giant Funds Planned
Parenthood. Do you think it odd that the largest private funding source for breast cancer
research is giving sizeable grants to entities whose activities actually cause breast cancer? You aren't
the only one, but that's exactly what is happening.
Latina Komen Advisor Resigns.
Four days ago [9/16/2004] Eve Sanchez Silver, a charter member of The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation's
National Hispanic/Latina Advisory Council, (SGK) received an article from a colleague which suggested that SGK
is currently funding Planned Parenthood. She thought it was a lie. It wasn't. … Upon investigating
the allegations that SGK was indeed funding Planned Parenthood through affiliate grants, she resigned from SGK,
canceling several speaking engagements around the country and resigning as well from her own beloved council.
Articles
Detail Komen-Planned Parenthood Ties. On the occasion of the Susan G. Komen Foundation
holding "Race for the Cure" events around the country, purportedly to raise awareness and funding for breast
cancer research, I recommend you read two articles which highlight the financial ties between Komen and the
pro-abortion group, Planned Parenthood. … Everyone wants to cure breast cancer. Unfortunately,
however, not everyone wants to end abortion.
Pro-Life
Senators Slammed for Alliance With 'Race for the Cure'. Senators Craig Thomas and Mike Enzi
routinely vote on the side of pro-life causes, but their alliance with the Komen Foundation's Wyoming affiliate
exists despite the fact that Komen hands part of the money it raises over to local chapters of the pro-abortion
Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Planned Parenthood clinics provide breast cancer screening and
education, but the organization is the nation's top abortion provider.
The Komen Foundation's Race For Abortion.
Here's the rub: the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation sent $475,000 in twenty-one grants to
local Planned Parenthood affiliates in 2003! "What's wrong with that?" you ask. Simple. Planned
Parenthood is the number one abortion provider in America — killing an average of 140,000 unborn
babies in the womb annually.
