In the wake of two undercover videos
exposing Planned Parenthood executives’ nonchalance in discussing prices
for “donated” baby body parts, momentum is increasing in Congress to
defund the organization, which
is the leading provider of abortions in
the U.S.
But it’s not just Congress that Planned Parenthood has to worry about.
Kansas became the eighth state Wednesday to also open an investigation into the abortion provider.
Gov. Sam Brownback made the following statement:
“Kansas remains committed to a culture that respects the dignity of life at all stages. Recent videos show Planned Parenthood employees treating the unborn as commodities as they discuss the sale of tissue and organs. This does not reflect the culture of life most Kansans want.”
Brownback follows Republican governors in Georgia, Louisiana, Texas,
Ohio, Indiana, Arizona and Missouri
in launching similar probes.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbot said, after the second video was released:
“Today’s new grotesque revelations necessitate that Texas expand its
investigation into this abhorrent practice.”
Brownback called on the Kansas Board of Healing Arts, with the
co-operation of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, “to
investigate, as part of its inspection of office-based surgical
practices, whether any Kansas facility is engaged in the inhumane
practice of selling tissue and organs from unborn children who are
aborted.”
Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal issued a statement saying the Department of
Community Health and Department of Public Health will conduct a joint
review of the clinics “to ensure this horrific practice is not occurring
here.”
Republican leaders in Congress are weighing a series of votes to
defund Planned Parenthood — possibly beginning before the August recess —
after the release of a second undercover sting video allegedly showing
one of the abortion rights group’s officials discussing the sale of
fetal organs. Planned Parenthood refers to the transfers as “donations”
that covers its “costs” of aborting the babies.
House Speaker John Boehner is “demanding” that President Obama back a
full-blown investigation into Planned Parenthood after a second
undercover video released Tuesday appears to show a top official
callously haggling over reimbursement fees for “specimen” samples and
even joking with actors posing as buyers that she wants “a
Lamborghini.”
“This new video is as sickening, disturbing and callous as the last
video. It’s now clear that Planned Parenthood allows this horrifying
conduct to happen throughout its organization,” Boehner said of the
second hidden-camera video released in as many weeks by the pro-life
Center for Medical Progress.
“Last week, I called on Congress to investigate these gruesome
practices. The Energy & Commerce and Judiciary Committees have begun
immediate investigations and I look forward to their prompt and
thorough action.
“President Obama still has not denounced these horrific practices,”
Boehner said. “He has a responsibility to also speak out immediately and
stop these practices now.”
Boehner’s own pro-life record is spotty. In September 2014, he led
the way in getting a “clean” bill passed that would fund the government
for the entire year, including more than half-a-billion dollars in
funding for Planned Parenthood. Boehner worked with former Democrat
Speaker Nancy Pelosi to get that legislation passed by a 319 to 108
margin.
More than 55 million unborn babies have been aborted in the U.S. since the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade ruling in 1973.
Planned Parenthood, in its most recent annual report, said it received $528.4 million in taxpayer finding in the 2013-14 fiscal year.
That means it received an average of $1,447,671 in taxpayer funds per day and an average of $60,320 every hour.
But the government is not the only place Planned Parenthood gets its money.
There are also 39 companies that donate directly to the abortion provider, as reported by the Daily Signal.
The companies donating directly to Planned Parenthood are:

The undercover videos were produced by
the Center for Medical Progress, a nonprofit “group of citizen
journalists dedicated to monitoring and reporting on medical ethics and
advances.”
“Over the last week, we’ve seen multiple videos showing its employees
brazenly discussing the harvesting of aborted babies’ tissue and
organs, but the truth is, Planned Parenthood’s culture of depravity runs
much deeper than a couple of videos,” said Rep. Diane Black, R-Tenn.,
on the House floor Tuesday night.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee began investigating the matter last week.
“As a nurse, I’ve seen the big abortion industry’s shameful tactics
with my own eyes,” Black said.
“I have just introduced the Defund
Planned Parenthood Act of 2015 – legislation that would enact an
immediate moratorium on all federal funding for Planned Parenthood while
Congress carries out a full investigation.”
The bill has 80 co-sponsors.
If the legislation clears Congress, it will await a presidential veto.
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told The Blaze this week
that the administration would not reconsider federal funding for Planned
Parenthood.
The first video featured the executive director of Planned
Parenthood’s medical services discussing body parts with an undercover
actor posing as a representative from a bio-research company. The
executive in the first video also openly discussed the use of
partial-birth abortion, which is illegal.
“The horrific and illegal acts described so callously by Planned
Parenthood in yesterday’s video should give even the most ardent
pro-choice advocate cause for grave concern. We urge Georgia’s lawmakers
to acknowledge the gravity of this evidence and launch an investigation
to ensure this is not happening in Georgia,” Georgia Alliance for Life
director Emily Matson told LifeNews.com in an email.
But pro-abortion groups and left-wing media types have been expressing anything by “grave concern.”
Consider this YouTube video
from the Young Turks, in which a young woman and her male newscast
partner express outrage and disbelief that anyone would take the two
videos seriously.
