Right now, Congress has a unique opportunity to finally cut off Planned Parenthood and other big abortion businesses from taxpayer dollars. Planned Parenthood is responsible for about 40% of abortions in the U.S. – almost 400,000 per year – and yet receives $700 million per year in taxpayer funding. While the Trump Administration recently moved to withhold some of these funds, more remains. Most members of Congress will be in their home states during the Easter and Passover recess, and so it’s a great time to reach out to – or even visit – their local offices and let them know that taxpayer funding of the big abortion industry is unacceptable. Please contact your members of Congress today! Mothers and babies need real care from life-loving providers, not Planned Parenthood.
