Full Title: Michigan Right to Work law an opportunity to partially defund Planned Parenthood, gay activists

...

They also support Planned Parenthood and same-sex “marriage” campaigns.

“Planned Parenthood and the UAW [United Auto Workers] share a planned vision for this country,” said Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards at the National Community Action Program (CAP) Legislative Conference in Washington.

Elise Hilton of the Acton Institute, a Michigan-based think tank focused on religious liberty, said the new law would “absolutely” help defund the progressive agenda.

That's the dirty little secret that nobody wants to talk about. Ask virtually any Michigan FReeper how they voted when they were a union member and you'll find that they voted conservative.

This is great news because it gets to the source of the Leftist cause’s funding base. Sever enough critical roots, and the whole corrupt tree will wither and die.

It is truly BIZARRE that unions spend cash on these things. WTF does unionization have to do with abortion? I see it from a donor-to-demoncrat POV, but this crap is just SICK.
