[Article title as published: PLANNED PARENTHOOD REMOVES ITS PRESIDENT AS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S STRONGEST ABORTION RESTRICTIONS COME INTO EFFECT]
Planned Parenthood has removed its president, Leana Wen, as the Trump administration continues to ramp up its efforts to limit abortion access and other reproductive health care services throughout the U.S.
On Tuesday, Planned Parenthood Federation of America and the Planned Parenthood Action Fund announced that Wen was stepping down after less than a year in the position. Wen was the first physician to lead the civil rights organization in its 100-year history.
Alexis McGill Johnson, a former board member of Planned Parenthood, has been named acting president until a new leader and CEO is chosen. In a statement, Johnson said she was looking forward to a "smooth leadership transition in this critical moment" for the organization.
"I thank Dr. Wen for her service and her commitment to patients. I look forward to getting to work alongside the incredible team at Planned Parenthood who work every single day to help people access high quality reproductive health care," Johnson said.
It appeared as though Wen was not aware that she was going to be removed from her role as president on Tuesday. She wrote in a Twitter post that while she had conversations with leadership about her potential departure, her termination happened during a "secret meeting" between board members.

Good riddance.
I thought Cecile Richards (Daughter of that nasty Ann) was president.
I guess Klanned Parenthood has leadership problems.
Lying Bastards: it’s not, “HEALTH CARE.”
CA JUST HIT WITH ANOTHER QUAKE!
Abortion Provider = Civil Rights Organization / got it
Abortion Provider = Civil Rights Organization / got it
It’s a corrupt pass thru to the Democratic party coffers.
In other words, someone else aborted her employment without her own consent as though she didn't matter.
Bingo!
yea... Planned Parenthood is a civil rights org and the NRA is not. NRA kills no one. Planned Parenthood commits genocide.
What a world.
Kind of like when the UN put Libya and Iran on the Human Rights Commission.
Leftist organizations always end up putting their extremists in control, and by so doing make a mockery of the high-sounding words that accompanied their founding.
It's been that way since the Bolshevik Revolution was hijacked by the Marxists. The idealists always end up with their backs to a wall and their hands cuffed behind them.
About 3 weeks ago I got a few calls from PP asking for donations. Both times the gal on the line wanted to talk to my wife. I told them I have to abort this call. The second call I told them they have a lot of balls calling me asking for money for their baby killing machine.
Well played.
She was aborted by the board.
Yes. i want to live long enough to see AOC axed to death by communists who condemn her as an enemy of the revolution. After all, she’s just a gold digger.
“Trump administration continues to ramp up its efforts to limit abortion access...” Yes, true and good.
“...and other reproductive health care services throughout the U.S”
Really, how so and what are “other services” to which they refer?
Civil rights organization? They provide “high quality reproductive health care”?
Whoever wrote these nonsensical description of PP is clearly delusional. Killing babies is neither civil rights nor health care.
