Senate Republicans Introduce Bill To Defund Planned Parenthood

A group of Republican senators, led by Iowa’s Joni Ernst, introduced legislation Tuesday to strip Planned Parenthood Federation of America of the more than $500 million of taxpayer money that it receives every year.

The bill comes after the anti-abortion group Center for Medical Progress released undercover videos showing Planned Parenthood officials talking with disturbing frankness about selling the organs of unborn children to research facilities.

The group’s affiliates across the country performed 327,653 abortion procedures in 2013, according to its most recent annual report. That report shows that Planned Parenthood took more $528 million in federal money, 41 percent of its revenue.

“As a mother and grandmother, I find this footage of Planned Parenthood’s role in the harvesting of the organs of unborn babies morally reprehensible and vile,” Ernst said in a statement. “The American people are horrified by these videos as well. Simply put, this legislation ensures that funding for women’s health is protected and that taxpayer dollars will not go to Planned Parenthood.”

The group’s affiliates and national office reported $77.9 million in “other operating revenue.” No word on how much of that revenue came from the sale of aborted babies’ body parts.

Funding Planned Parenthood was started to kill off the black population and other segments of the population that were not supposedly beneficial.

Make Odumbi veto it. Make the Dems support the killing of hundreds of black babies every single day and cutting them dead little black babies up and selling these little bits of cut up little black babies so White Rich Women can buy Luxury Cars.

Who is gonna say that? Only Trump?

Why do we have to settle for “getting them on record.”. That’s like saying, “ But we won the coin toss.” What does getting them on record do for a populace that can’t identify the vice President from a series of photographs? Tell all those dead babies we got them on record. The public is on the Republican’s side on this, the wind is at their back and they are aiming for a consolation prize. How about we actually try to win something for a change?

"Let me repeat in the clearest words in my disposal. There is no stopping abortion without an ocean of grace from Jesus Christ. No way will human means stop abortion. The principal source of this grace is the Holy Eucharist." - Fr. John A. Hardon

Ask your parishes to process the Eucharist for the end of abortion!

P.S. While you may not know of Fr. John A. Hardon, one of his best friends on earth was Mother Teresa, and she agreed with him:

"If people spent an hour a week in Eucharistic Adoration, abortion would be ended." - Mother Teresa
