Defund this abortion mill

Thu., Aug. 13, 2015

It’s way beyond time for Congress to get serious. This is an appeal to Sens. Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell, and 5th Congressional District Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers to act decisively. Defund Planned Parenthood.

Take this slaughtering organization of unborn children out of any and all federal funding. It is an abortion mill and a harvester of child baby parts for profit and power in American politics. All other services performed by Planned Parenthood are carried out in community health clinics and other nonprofit and profit health care facilities. The abortion mill needs to be stopped now.
