De-fund Planned Parenthood And Stop Tax-Dollar Support Of Abortion

The Alert:
U.S. taxpayers are being forced to fund America’s largest and leading abortion non-profit corporation, Planned Parenthood, to the tune of $305.3 million annually. Despite claims that Planned Parenthood provides a wide-range of family-planning services, the organization boasts of being the world’s largest abortion provider—performing a record 264,943 abortions in the fiscal year 2005-2006 -- a time period during which they made no adoption referrals (Source: Family Research Council). In the previous year, Planned Parenthood had reported 1,414 adoption referrals, which amounts to one adoption for every 180 abortions.

Illegal Activity:
Recently, the PPFA has been indicted over illegal late-term abortions, failure to determine the viability for late term abortions, 23 felony counts of making false information and unlawful failure to maintain records.

Even more repulsive is word that PPFA has been involved in a baby body parts operation whereby intact body parts, arms, legs, eyes, livers etc. where shipped to fulfill what has been called “research” orders. During the investigation, a parts price list including $75 for an aborted spleen, $550 for gonads was uncovered.

These charges moved Senator Sam Brownback to call for a suspension of federal funding of PPFA.

Now is the time for grassroots Americans to take action against PPFA by demanding the government funding pull the plug on the PPFA’s thriving abortion industry.

The Action:
The fact that this organization can somehow remain unaccountable while skirting regulations governing other so-called “non-profits” is highly suspect. Grassfire.org Alliance has launched a national petition to rally 250,000 pro-life citizens from across the country that are calling for an end to the federal funding of PPFA and the abortion agenda, as well as a closer investigative look into the practices and procedures of PPFA. Grassfire’s petition -- modeled after the letter drafted by Sens. Brownback and Vitter -- will be sent directly to Congress in support of legislation to terminate federal funding for Planned Parenthood and other organizations promoting abortion.

The Petition:

The “De-fund Planned Parenthood” petition states:

As a citizen of this nation, and one who values the sanctity of life, I am signing this petition urging Congress and the President to suspend funding in all future Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education and Related Agencies Appropriations bills for organizations that promote abortion such as Planned Parenthood Federation of America. This action is especially important in light of the recent criminal indictments against Planned Parenthood along with reports of despicable acts by that organization including the marketing of human body parts.

America continues to be engaged in a rigorous debate over abortion and our government should not side with those who promote the abortion agenda. I strongly oppose having my tax dollars used to support organizations that promote abortion, and am urging Congress to take immediate action to de-fund any and all programs and organizations that encourage abortion or perform abortion in America.
