It is because of the persistence, fight, and values of organizations like Planned Parenthood that we are able to continue pushing for reproductive justice. May this center be a symbol for all of those that stand up for women\u2019s health care \u2013 and may we continue to lead the fight toward reproductive freedom for all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ: <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/two-midwest-planned-parenthood-executives-step-down\/\"><em>Two controversial Midwest Planned Parenthood executives step down<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The facility will be part of the Planned Parenthood Mar Monte affiliate, the largest of all the abortion corporation&#8217;s affiliates.
