A Clear Choice - Family v. Planned Parenthood

          On Tuesday, 4-4-06, members of the Pa. House had set before them a clear choice. Rep. Daryl Metcalfe proposed amending the budget by transferring $4.43 million from Planned Parenthood (“Family Planning”) to Maternal & Child Health. It failed by a 92-106 vote. Progress has been made since 2002, when 50 House members supported such a transfer.

           Some Reps who supported Planned Parenthood will confess their respect for the organization and their mission. Some will attempt to justify their vote and allege Planned Parenthood does good. Condoms prevent abortions. Where can poor people get a pap smear? None of this funding provides abortion services. I want to provide health services for the underinsured or uninsured. If we cut this funding, women will not receive screening for breast and cervical cancer.

           These allegations are false testimony. The Representatives who voted against the amendment voted to finance a racist entity - the largest abortion company in the world. Every day, they seek to destroy the morals of our young people. Our nation has never suffered before from the level of Sexually Transmitted Disease - the CDC reports that 65 million American are now infected with an incurable sexual disease. Also during the ascendancy of Planned Parenthood, our out-of-wedlock birthrate has grown 600%. For the last 45 years, the agenda of PP has created social anarchy. Philadelphia is a dying city because Family Life is gone and the suburban counties are following. It is no accident. From it’s founder, Margaret Sanger - “Our objective is unlimited sexual gratification without the burden of children” and “the marriage bed is the most degenerative influence in the social order.” Those Reps who voted “no” stood for an organization that is objectively evil and opposes Judeo-Christian ethics.

 

Supporting the Culture of Death

This report is a partial listing of corporations, foundations, and attorneys who support Planned Parenthood (local or national). Their support directly promotes teen promiscuity, venereal disease, contraceptives, abortifacients, and abortion. During 2002, 6,208 mothers and babies suffered the violence of abortion at PP in S.E. Pa. Avoiding these entities is not enough. Please advise them that they are hurting teens, mothers, and pre-born people. Remember, many supporters of PP(199 in last reported year) wish to remain anonymous. It’s appropriate to inquire of those with whom you deal if they support Planned Parenthood.
