New Jersey residents could be forced to give their hard-earned tax dollars to the nations largest abortion chain for the first time in eight years.
The state Senate passed legislation Thursday to send $7.5 million to Planned Parenthood and other groups that do abortions in the state, NorthJersey.com reports. The legislation now moves to the state Assembly. Pro-abortion Gov. Phil Murphy promised to sign it.
The bill would reverse decisions by former Gov. Chris Christie to block $7.5 million tax dollars to Planned Parenthood, the nations largest abortion business. Christie, who is pro-life, vetoed Planned Parenthood funding numerous times and redirected the family planning funds to federally qualified community health centers.
Christine Sadovy, a lobbyist for Planned Parenthood in New Jersey, praised the move. She said the abortion chain had to shut down six facilities in the past eight years because of the funding cuts. She and pro-abortion lawmakers claimed women lost access to vital health care during those eight years a claim refuted by numerous sources.
A state Department of Health spokeswoman said non-abortion family planning clinics, hospitals and other medical facilities received tens of millions of dollars during the past eight years to offer cancer screenings, prevention programs, STD testing and more to low-income women.

It says a lot about these so-called “feminists” that they would rather give money to Planned Parenthood than spend money on health care for poor women.
Tea Party Time
I shudder to think the fate of abortion activists when they meet God.
This tax-and-spend mentality in NJ even has our imported Hispanics and Asians fleeing - I kid you not. The foreign hosts our parasitic government worker caste imported to replace the Americans as they fled are now fleeing themselves.
“Christie, who is pro-life, vetoed Planned Parenthood funding numerous times and redirected the family planning funds to federally qualified community health centers.”
I was shredded for defending Christie here on FR, but until you live here you can’t imagine how refreshing he was. Besides a strong pro-life supporter, he was very anti-tax; he really had all the right enemies.
I get it, living in Maryland you get what you can here too.
Keep the faith!
Thanks; FRegards!
This is what years of so-called moderate Republicans always lead to. The same thing has happened in IL. Rauner is going to be a one-term Governor replaced by a total socialist Rat.
It’s a way to steal money, I’ll bet if you follow the money you will see how that money moves in to PP then is moved to Democrats or NWO fascists, but I repeat myself
