Appleton, December 9 \u2014 New undercover footage from an Appleton, WI, Planned Parenthood abortion clinic shows clinic staff, including the abortion doctor, lying to two young women about fetal development and encouraging the one who is pregnant to obtain an abortion because \u201cwomen die having babies.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the undercover video, when the two women ask a Planned Parenthood counselor if the pregnant woman\u2019s 10-week-old unborn child has a heartbeat, the counselor emphasizes \u201cheart tones,\u201d and answers, \u201cHeart beat is when the fetus is active in the uterus\u2013can survive\u2013which is about seventeen or eighteen weeks.\u201d On the contrary, embryologists agree that the heartbeat begins around 3 weeks. Wisconsin informed-consent law requires that women receive medically accurate information before undergoing an abortion.<\/p>\n

The counselor then says, \u201cA fetus is what\u2019s in the uterus right now. That is not a baby.\u201d Dr. Prohaska, the abortion doctor, insists, \u201cIt\u2019s not a baby at this stage or anything like that.\u201d Prohaska also states that having an abortion will be \u201cmuch safer than having a baby,\u201d warning, \u201cYou know, women die having babies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The video comes one month after the widely reported resignation of Planned Parenthood clinic director Abby Johnson. Johnson left her leadership position at Planned Parenthood in Bryan, TX, after watching a 13-week-old fetus being aborted in her clinic on ultrasound. She said during a recent interview, \u201cPlanned Parenthood really tries to instill in their employees and the women that are coming in for abortions that this is not a baby.\u201d In another interview, she noted, \u201cThey don\u2019t want to talk about when your baby has a heartbeat,\u201d because \u201cthey don\u2019t want to give the woman information that could give her a connection with her baby.\u201d<\/p>\n

The investigation is organized by Live Action, a nonprofit student group. Lila Rose, the 21-year-old UCLA student and Live Action president, says medical lies and manipulative counseling are routine at Planned Parenthood, the nation\u2019s largest abortion chain.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey will do or say anything in order to sell more abortions to more women, whether it is covering up sexual abuse or lying to women about medical facts,\u201d says Rose. \u201cOur team has visited dozens of Planned Parenthood clinics undercover. Planned Parenthood, while claiming to support patient self-determination, operates with an \u2018abortion-first’ mentality.\u201d<\/p>\n

The video is the first in Live Action\u2019s \u201cRosa Acuna Project,\u201d a multi-state undercover audit documenting Planned Parenthood\u2019s abortion counseling. Planned Parenthood has come under fire recently after Live Action\u2019s investigations found them willing to conceal sexual abuse and accept donations targeted to abort African-Americans only. Videos of abuse cover-up prompted state investigations of Planned Parenthood and diversion of the abortion giant\u2019s public subsidies.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlanned Parenthood is a billion-dollar organization with nearly $350 million of government funding, and stands to gain hundreds of millions more from national health care,\u201d says Rose. \u201cDo we really want to subsidize an organization that gives women in need atrocious misinformation and predatory abortion practices?\u201d<\/p>\n
