Defund PP: Urgent action needed now to strip PP of Title X funding
U.S. Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) is attempting to eliminate millions in taxpayer funding for Planned Parenthood, an organization under fire in the past year for racist targeting of minority populations, institutionally protecting child rapists and misusing tax funds.
PP uses Title X funding to fuel its contraceptive and sex-education programs.
His measure, the Pence Amendment, states, "None of the funds made available under this Act shall be available to Planned Parenthood for any purpose under Title X of the Public Health Services Act."
Last year, PP raked in $374.7 million in clinic income and an additional $349.6 million in government grants and contracts.
“Regardless of your views on abortion, our nation cannot afford to throw millions of dollars at an organization not only shown to misuse tax funds but one that continually puts the lives of men, women and children in danger,” said Jim Sedlak, vice president of American Life League.
American Life League president Judie Brown sent a letter to hundreds of thousands of supporters around the country last week, urging them to contact their members of Congress and ask them to allow an up-or-down vote on the Pence Amendment.
“Planned Parenthood’s agenda is putting our kids in danger from sexual predators on a daily basis,” Brown said. “The gravity of Planned Parenthood’s crimes transcends party lines. Any American concerned about keeping our kids safe should support the Pence Amendment.”
Action Alert: Help defund PP NOW!
Call the congressional switchboard NOW at 202-224-3121, or call your representative’s office directly. Tell them that the Pence Amendment to strip PP of Title X funding deserves an up-or-down vote! The ethic of democracy in our country demands that the House Rules Committee allows a vote on this critical, lifesaving amendment.
YouTube bans another video exposing PP
YouTube is once again censoring videos that expose the truth about Planned Parenthood’s disregard for laws protecting children from predators. The most recently banned film exposes a PP employee in Birmingham, Alabama, offering to “bend the rules” on reporting child rape and obtaining parental consent for an undercover investigator posing as a teen seeking an abortion. The film was posted by Live Action, a student-led pro-life group.
Alabama’s attorney general is now investigating PP because of Live Action’s video, which the attorney general requested in early July.
In 2008, YouTube censored an American Life League video warning the public about a PP sex video while allowing the objectionable PP sex video to remain on YouTube.
PP tries to force taxpayers to pay for abortions via health care legislation
Planned Parenthood is aggressively working to get more funding to kill preborn babies, this time via the Obama administration’s health care reform legislation. While claiming that “anti-choice forces are hijacking health care reform,” the Planned Parenthood Action Center also claims, “Without genuine access to reproductive health care, a woman's right to choose is made meaningless.”
PP is sending out a clarion call for supporters to contact their representatives and demand that “reproductive health care” guaranteeing the “right” to choose abortion be incorporated into the health care plan.
PP has already received a cumulative amount of over four billion dollars from taxpayers’ pockets. Last year alone, the abortion giant received $346.9 million from government grants and contracts.
Action Alert: The abortion industry is drooling at the prospect of being enriched by the national health care plan, which some pro-life leaders are saying could result in the largest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade. To learn how you can help stop the abortion industry in its tracks, visit http://www.StopTheAbortionMandate.com.
Limbaugh: PP seeks to abort various minorities out of existence
A recent comment by Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in the New York Times set off a firestorm of controversy. Ginsberg is quoted as saying, "Frankly, I had thought at the time that Roe was decided that there was concern about population growth, particularly growth in populations we don't want to have too many of, so that Roe was going to then be set up for Medicaid funding for abortion" (emphasis added).
Radio-talk-show personality Rush Limbaugh connected the dots, as he said, between Ginsburg’s remarks and PP’s roots in eugenics. Speaking about Ginsburg’s comment, Limbaugh said:
Now, growth in populations we don't want to have too many – that's Planned Parenthood. That was the original goal of Planned Parenthood. The original goal of Planned Parenthood was to abort various minorities out of existence. That was the original purpose.
He continued saying:
Other infamous world figures acted upon similar instincts using other means to object – achieve their objectives: concentration camps, mass gassings, so-called ethnic cleansings. Planned Parenthood's no different – Margaret Sanger's Planned Parenthood is no different than any of the people that used concentration camps, mass gassing, so-called ethnic cleansings.
PP, abortion and eugenics exposed: ‘Maafa 21’
Maafa 21, a new documentary about Planned Parenthood, abortion, eugenics and the African American community, is spreading like wildfire across the country. Mark Crutcher and his team at Life Dynamics Institute have produced a scathing feature-length film that should be seen by every American involved in the fight for human rights and against PP.
Crutcher and his team brilliantly unravel the long-time and deep ties between the racist, eugenicist movement of the early 20th century and the push for birth control, abortion and euthanasia led by PP.
Maafa, the Swahili word for holocaust, describes centuries of African enslavement and racism. Maafa 21 reveals that this dark seed of racism, hatred and eugenics has not died, but morphed into the benign-sounding “family planning” movement operating under the aegis of tax-gorged PP, which was founded by unrepentant racist and eugenicist Margaret Sanger.
The damning evidence presented in Maafa 21 leaves no room for doubt. PP operates under the same philosophy that spawned slavery, eugenics and the quest for a “pure” race of “thoroughbreds” espoused by the Nazi party.

Waco pro-lifers take on PP’s sex-indoctrination conference
The following is an e-mail we received from John Pisciotta, director of Pro-Life Waco and an economics professor at Baylor University. He reports on pro-life opposition to Planned Parenthood’s 20th annual Nobody’s Fool conference last week:
Planned Parenthood Waco’s Nobody’s Fool was met with an action-packed pro-life, pro-decency challenge.
Here is the flyer that Planned Promiscuity of Waco used to market the 20th year of this event.
There were dueling yard signs around the city of Waco. You can see our yard sign here. The yard sign message, “Take the high road. Just abstain from Nobody’s Fool.” was also the message of a large Pro-Life Waco billboard in downtown Waco. While their yard signs outnumbered ours, ours were seen by thousands and had a big impact.
On the evening prior to Nobody’s Fool, News10TV in Waco interviewed Planned Promiscuity CEO Pam Smallwood and me on their 5 p.m. news. “Fireworks” erupted immediately.
We had a great turnout from dedicated pro-lifers for Nobody’s Fool. A half dozen attended the preview on Tuesday evening. 30-40 stood for life and decency at the Waco Convention Center when children were escorted into the Convention Center Wednesday morning. And, over a dozen were on hand when the children were allowed to depart at noon. Through the entire morning Pro-Life Waco’s “new” box truck was parked in a can’t-miss location. Among the messages on the truck were the yard-sign message and “Planned Parenthood: Destroying a generation one child at a time.”
Two TV stations covered the controversy. The news segment on KCEN can be viewed by clicking here.
A video is currently being prepared that will be made available to you and to the world through YouTube. [Update: Here is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoQoOaicbHI]
I want to relate to you one of the many interactions not caught “on film.” A local pastor engaged a man who had just brought his daughter into Nobody’s Fool. The pastor shared the deplorable Planned Parenthood expectations for his child. The enlightened father returned to the Convention Center and rescued his daughter!!
Finally, I was interviewed for about 10 minutes on the Lynn Woolley Talk Show, which is heard in 8 Texas cities. You can listen to the interview by clicking here.
Congratulations to John and all of the Waco pro-lifers for their brilliant fight against PP’s sex-indoctrination program for children!
