 After Senate Vote, House of Representatives Must Take Up Issue

Washington, D.C – This afternoon the U.S. Senate voted 53 to 46 on S.1881, legislation to defund America’s largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, and re-direct their funding to other health care entities that do not perform abortions. While receiving the majority of votes, the bill fell short of the 60 necessary to move forward immediately. Jeanne Mancini, President of the March for Life Education and Defense Fund, praised the bipartisan group of Senators who voted to support S.1881, legislation that would stop taxpayer dollars from going to Planned Parenthood and asked for continued support and work to defund Planned Parenthood.“Over the past few weeks Americans on both sides of the political aisle have been have been shocked as they have watched one video after the other of Planned Parenthood officials exploiting the dignity of the human person — both mother and baby. The undercover videos have revealed how the nation’s largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, is harvesting and trafficking little hearts, livers, lungs of aborted children. Planned Parenthood receives over half a billion dollars in taxpayer funds every year, while taking the lives of 300 preborn babies every day.”

“Today, a bipartisan group of Senators voted to support S.1881, legislation that would stop taxpayer dollars from going to Planned Parenthood and redirect the money to life-affirming health care centers that protect women and babies,” Mrs. Mancini explained. “We commend the courageous Senators who support this crucial legislation and we call on the entire Congress to continue with their efforts to protect life by putting an end to the use of taxpayer funds to support this organization.”

The March for Life in Washington, D.C., began as a small demonstration on January 22, 1974, the first anniversary of the now-infamous Supreme Court decisions in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton and rapidly grew to be the largest pro-life event in the world.  The peaceful demonstration that has followed on this somber anniversary every year since is a witness to the truth concerning the greatest human rights violation of our time, abortion.

Jeanne Mancini, President of March for Life Education and Defense Fund, is available for interviews. For more information or to schedule an interview, please contact Ryan Hughes at RHughes@SBPublicAffairs.com or (703) 739-5920.

#UnplannedParenthood: Every Life is a Gift

Each and every life is a gift – no matter the circumstances that you are born into. With the grisly videos exposing the practices of “Planned Parenthood” and reminding us of the hundreds of lives that the so-called “women’s health” organization takes each and every day, it’s important to remember that whether planned or unplanned – every life matters.

Check out some of the touching #UnplannedParenthood stories that have been popping up on Twitter!

Exposing Planned Parenthood

 

As more videos continue to surface that expose Planned Parenthood’s egregious organ harvesting practices and blatant disregard for the dignity of the human person the time is now for Congress to stop using taxpayer funds to support the organization. Congress should divest from the organization at all levels of government and lead an investigation into the organization’s horrific practices.

M4L-Meme2The release of videos by the Center for Medical Progress has continued to expose the true practices of Planned Parenthood, along with their complete disrespect for and undignified treatment of human life. The practice of harvesting and selling baby parts is nauseating and illegal. No American should be forced to participate in this unsettling practice through taxpayer funding.

Americans are disgusted by what they’ve witnessed on these videos. Congress, state legislatures and city governments must act to bring to an end all federal funding of Planned Parenthood.

Thankfully, in addition to the waves of public outcry on social media this week, there are members of Congress who are speaking out as well. On July 21, Representative Sean Duffy hosted a special order about Planned Parenthood’s atrocities. Please take a few moments to watch some of these speeches and thank these members for their words and action.

Congress must Defund Planned Parenthood

New Video Proves Investigations into the Misuse of Taxpayer Money Necessary, But Not Enough

Washington, D.C – As more videos continue to surface that expose Planned Parenthood’s egregious organ harvesting practices and blatant disregard for the dignity of the human person the time is now for Congress to stop using taxpayer funds to support the organization.  Jeanne Mancini, President of the March for Life Education and Defense Fund, is calling on Congress to divest from the organization at all levels of government and to lead an investigation into the organization’s horrific practices.

“The release of videos by the Center for Medical Progress has continued to expose the true practices of Planned Parenthood, along with their complete disrespect for and undignified treatment of human life. The practice of harvesting and selling baby parts is nauseating and illegal. No American should be forced to participate in this unsettling practice through taxpayer funding.”

A new undercover video released Tuesday by the Center for Medical Progress shows a Planned Parenthood executive discussing possible prices for intact fetal specimens. In the video, actors posing as buyers ask Dr. Mary Gatter, president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s Medical Directors’ Council, what she would expect for intact tissue. The new video comes on the heels of a recent one that CMP released in which Dr. Deborah Nucatola, Planned Parenthood’s senior director of medical services, describes over lunch how she conducts abortions to preserve fetal organs like the heart, lungs and liver. That video has generated a torrent of criticism from pro-life lawmakers, who are calling for an investigation into the practices.

“Americans are disgusted by what they’ve witnessed on these videos. Congress, state legislatures and city governments must act to bring to an end all federal funding of Planned Parenthood,” Mrs. Mancini added.

Planned Parenthood commits close to 330,000 abortions every year. In their 2013-2014 report Planned Parenthood stated their total revenue was over $1.3 billion.  46 percent of that revenue came from federal, state and city governments.  Though they claim non-profit status they made a profit of $127.1 million during that same period, some of which was profit from trafficking of organs of unborn babies.

The March for Life in Washington, D.C., began as a small demonstration on January 22, 1974, the first anniversary of the now-infamous Supreme Court decisions in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton and rapidly grew to be the largest pro-life event in the world.  The peaceful demonstration that has followed on this somber anniversary every year since is a witness to the truth concerning the greatest human rights violation of our time, abortion.
