This corrupt organization is responsible for killing over 332,000 defenseless unborn children each year. Planned Parenthood manipulates women to choose abortion and routinely aids and abets the sexual exploitation and trafficking of young girls. Governors of other states should take note of how Gov. Perdue&#8217;s legislature has decisively rejected her veto and realize that the American people do not want to subsidize abortionists.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Indiana, Kansas, and New Jersey have recently passed laws to prevent taxpayer funds from going to Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood is challenging the Indiana law in federal court, although a federal judge has already denied the abortion business\u2019s request for a temporary injunction.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past four years, Live Action has released undercover videos revealing Planned Parenthood clinics across the country covering up the sexual abuse of children and violating mandatory reporting laws for statutory rape. In February, Live Action released new undercover footage showing 7 Planned Parenthood clinics in 4 states willing to aid and abet the commercial sex trafficking of underage girls. The videos prompted the House of Representatives to vote twice to defund Planned Parenthood of all federal taxpayer subsidies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNorth Carolina joins Indiana, Kansas, and New Jersey in standing up for the rule of law, human rights, and responsible government,\u201d says Rose. \u201cWhile we wait for Congress to defund Planned Parenthood at the federal level, responsible state governments should do their part to protect women and unborn children and end local public subsidies of this lawless abortion chain.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To see the videos, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/traffick\">liveaction.org\/traffick<\/a><br \/>\nTo learn more about Live Action, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/\">liveaction.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">###<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Anna Bettisworth, media@liveaction.org, 323.454.3304 RALEIGH, June 16\u2014Lila Rose, president of the pro-life youth organization Live Action, issued the following statement this morning on North Carolina\u2019s defunding of Planned Parenthood: &#8220;North Carolina is now the fourth state this year to step up to the plate and ensure that no taxpayer dollars go [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":26440,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.7 -
