Why will PP spend $10 million on this election?

Recently, a Wall Street Journal story reported that Planned Parenthood is going to spend an unprecedented $10 million this election cycle to make sure they will have strong allies at all levels of government and in the courts.

Why is Planned Parenthood spending millions this cycle as opposed to past cycles?

They are being criminally investigated in Kansas on 107 criminal counts including falsifying documents in order to perform illegal late term abortions.

They are fighting a lawsuit in California by a whistleblower which alleges they defrauded taxpayers to the tune of over $180 million.

They were caught in Idaho willingly and enthusiastically accepting donations from a perceived racist donor who advocated for more black abortions.

In Ohio, they are being sued for not reporting the rape of a 15-year-old by her father.

Jenn Giroux, President of Women Influencing the Nation:

“The reason Planned Parenthood is spending an unprecedented $10 million this election cycle is to elect pro-choice candidates who will overlook criminal, racist and unethical business practices that continue to occur at their clinics across the country.

Planned Parenthood receives over $300 million a year in tax dollars, totaling $3.9 billion since 1987 in taxpayer financed abortion. They are ‘investing’ $10 million this election cycle to protect their billions in taxpayer subsidies in order to continue performing abortions, including late term abortions, which are illegal in many states.”

The Drudge Report yesterday uncovered a disturbing story about how Planned Parenthood graciously and excitedly accepted a donation meant for aborting black babies. The phone conversation was recorded and can now be viewed on YouTube.

“It is fascinating to see Congress investigating just about every industry and government contractors’ business practices in an effort to be transparent and open. Yet, Planned Parenthood, a flagship of the multi-billion dollar abortion industry and a government contractor, receiving $300 million a year, whose business practices include criminal and racist elements, gets a pass.

“It is evident Planned Parenthood has no regard for the law. In fact, their actions suggest they are above the law and any type of government reproach. They need to be held accountable at the very least to the federal and state governments that fund a third of their annual budget. Congress and state governments should freeze all taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood. Tax payers should not be funding an organization under serious criminal investigation for falsifying documents to perform illegal activity, aids and abets child rape, commits fraud against citizens, and enthusiastically advocates an increase in black abortions,” Giroux concluded.
