Videos of Planned Parenthood officials callously speaking about the harvesting and apparent sale of unborn babies’ body parts have been viewed by millions.
But how can Planned Parenthood be involved in the illegal selling of human body parts? One Planned Parenthood official is on video admitting, “It’s all just a matter of line items.” Planned Parenthood apparently gets paid for selling the organs and tissues of aborted children to research laboratories.
Planned Parenthood also receives millions of tax dollars each year to provide or refer for a variety of other services. In Fiscal Year 2013-2014, the abortion giant reported receiving $528 million in tax funding – or 41 percent of its total revenue.
It is time to support House Bill 1623, cosponsored by Rep. Paul Schemel and Rep. Judy Ward. This bill would prioritize public funds to entities that provide comprehensive women’s health care and prohibit the Department of Health from entering into contracts with or making grants to any entity that performs abortions (except federally qualified abortions) or maintains or operates a facility where such abortions are performed.
The Catholic Church is opposed to all abortions. Though this bill will not stop funding for Medicaid abortions (those for rape, incest or life of the mother), it still constitutes a positive step in the right direction by restricting significant public funding to those programs that engage in the abortion trade. That is an important restriction especially since the primary goal of the bill is not to advance abortion of any type but is to provide important health care services to women at many, accessible facilities around the Commonwealth.
Although government funds cannot currently be used to perform abortions, Planned Parenthood does spend taxpayer dollars to attract people into its clinics for other services, providing the opportunity to promote its abortion business.
Simply put, we can do better for women and children. Send a message to your legislator today in support of House Bill 1623.

JUST RELEASED: New undercover Planned Parenthood video
Congress is currently working to pass a budget that includes a provision that will defund Planned Parenthood for at least a year. And the timing could not be better.
A new undercover video has just been released that explicitly demonstrates how Planned Parenthood is conducting illegal partial-birth abortions. A partial-birth abortion is where most of the baby is delivered — fully alive — and then its spinal cord is cut before the rest of the baby’s body is pulled out. This act is truly horrific, and it has been under a federal ban for more than ten years.
It’s breathtaking that our tax dollars are paying for an organization involved in such gruesome and inhumane activities.
Give a gift to the MRC today to help support the fight for media accountability; help the MRC expose the horrors and realities surrounding Planned Parenthood.

One of the most disturbing parts of the video is when one of Planned Parenthood’s main abortion providers in Texas, Dr. Amna Dermish, laughs with a colleague about how she will continue to “strive for” procuring intact heads from freshly aborted babies. Dr. Dermish then continues to explain how a second colleague loves to search through the aborted body parts for the hearts. When asked why, she responds with, “Just for fun. It’s cute!”
