No Kansas reports on fetal tissue in 15 years

While the Republican Congress stomps around with their investigations and Gov. Rick Scott jumps on the bandwagon threatening to fight the “evils” housed in Planned Parenthood, everyone should be brought back to reality.

While I oppose abortion, I also support funding for family planning programs precisely because they reduce the number of unintended pregnancies and abortions. That language was removed from a budget bill during end-of-session negotiations with the Senate, which is narrowly controlled by Democrats.

“Planned Parenthood does not represent the values of the people of Louisiana and shows a fundamental disrespect for human life”, Jindal said.

The anti-abortion group Live Action has been targeting Planned Parenthood with elaborate media hoaxes for over nine years now.

The Hyde amendment, which I support, prohibits any organization from using federal dollars to pay for abortions. It will still receive federal money in the state.

Abortion rights supporters said the Gosnell case was about a rogue abortionist who was doing obviously illegal acts, but the shock of the abortions was the overriding impression. Another 12 percent is miscellaneous women’s health and other health services.

But this time around, a series of recent undercover videos highlighting Planned Parenthood’s involvement in fetal tissue collections gave the effort more momentum, as the footage has kept the group under the spotlight for weeks and raised questions of illegal activity. They say the videos prove the agency was illegally selling body parts.

State defunding of Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid money may be easier said than done. I will continue working with the Commissioner of Health and Human Services to provide leadership and identify alternative health care providers. Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri provides abortions at a clinic in the Kansas City suburb of Overland Park. “I’m proud to stand with Planned Parenthood; I’ll never stop fighting to protect the ability and right of every woman in this country to make her own health decisions”, the former secretary of state said.

“We were surprised and concerned by Senator Collins’ vote to defund Planned Parenthood”. Most of that money comes from the federal government. “So, you’ve taken $4,000 away from an agency that’s federally funded anyway”. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa. The bill would bar any federal government funding of Planned Parenthood and its affiliated groups.

The spokeswoman cited a 2011 letter from a top Medicaid administrator on the subject.

If the tissue is viable enough to be used in research then why is it not viable to sustain its original life?

On Monday, U.S. Sen.

Yes, the images conjured from the video are a little hard to swallow, but so was the conversation over dinner when my friend was in medical school and she would tell us about the cadaver she had just autopsied a few hours before. We know that many Americans strongly believe that fetal tissue is a foundation of life that deserves protection. They reported that 25 of those were second trimester. “And that is unacceptable”. “Hillary Clinton jumped all over it for a reason, because she saw an opportunity … and it is foolish to say that women’s health isn’t a priority”. “Can you imagine not having that option available, how many kids would be out here and how big of a hole we would dig ourselves into if those options weren’t available?”
