Planned Parenthood will cover costs of fetal tissue programs
In a statement the clergy said, “As faith leaders committed to justice, honesty, and liberty, we are troubled by the decades-long campaign of harassment against Planned Parenthood and those they serve”. And thanks to its 100-year history, the non-profit is a household name-and an easy target.
Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards said she and other top officials made the decision not because they did anything wrong, but because they want to “take the smokescreen away” from Republicans attacking her group with claims that it profited from the tissue. Planned Parenthood didn’t disclose the amount it will forgo with its new policy. “No, Mr. Speaker, you are not trying to find the facts”.
If your religious belief forbids abortion, don’t get one.
The abortion reverend heads up a group called the Ohio Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, and they run an “all-options” counseling hotline for women facing crisis pregnancies. “It’s never OK to have an abortion”, said Thayer.
Lots of medical guidelines “thwart a patient’s will”, but guidelines they are. Unsupported accusation seems to satisfy anti-abortionists, who have no information on what Planned Parenthood does, where its money goes, or even why its formation was necessary. During the recent Republican congressional attempts to defund Planned Parenthood, ACN attempted to address this issue by starting a hashtag, #Standwithabortioncareproviders, to use with #StandWithPP. In January, local Planned Parenthood clinics will kick off offering transition hormone therapy for transitioning people. She blamed clinic employees for downplaying the gravity of the procedure. The 3 percent of PP’s operation that involves abortion is, by law, unfunded by the government. A recent study highlighted how these shifts have vastly increased waiting lists in parts of Texas-even up to 20 days for an appointment. “This is just another pathway to deny a woman a right to a safe and legal abortion”. And they have insisted that the clinics only recoup the costs they incur, which is permitted under federal law. “So, it helps us and really kind of reinvigorates the staff here”. Republican presidential candidates such as Rand Paul of Kentucky and Ted Cruz of Texas have used the videos to justify several congressional hearings about the charges. A similar bill in the Senate is sponsored by President Keith Faber. According to The New York Times, the National Institutes of Health devoted $76 million previous year to fetal tissue research. The group said programs at its clinics that use fetal tissue for research would continue.
Planned Parenthood has opened for business in a temporary location in Pullman after their clinic was damaged by arson in September.
Grant also notes how the political climate has impacted the patient/provider relationship.
“I feel like we’ll have a few representation there”. Stoltenberg agreed: “Abortion is not health care”. Adds Madsen: “Prices are kept low so that people can pay cash out of pocket”, says Madsen. It provides it for those who can not afford private medical assistance, at no cost to the taxpayer. As one lawmaker after another erupted in outrage at the very existence of abortion, it became clear that the hearing itself was group therapy. It’s an act of violence, Will. That’s a message applicable to all abortions, including the ones at Planned Parenthood.
Abortion defenders’ complaints about the Planned Parenthood investigation are getting more outlandish by the week.
“‘What is that process to where it finally ends up being incinerated?'” Franklin said is the question. I don’t believe that we have to be in this situation.
