As a result of the Planned Parenthood scandal, the University of Missouri has chosen to distance itself from the organization. The University\u00a0has\u00a0cancelled<\/a> contracts with Planned Parenthood,\u00a0after state lawmakers launched investigations into abortion giant.<\/p>\n

The relationship between Planned Parenthood and the University of Missouri goes back 26 years, during which time “nursing and medical students were never required to work at a Planned Parenthood clinic, but it was an optional rotation.”<\/p>\n

Earlier this year,\u00a0in response to videos<\/a>\u00a0released by the Center for Medical Progress –\u00a0which\u00a0show Planned Parenthood staff engaging in the sale of human body parts –\u00a0Missouri State Senator\u00a0Tom Dempsey\u00a0created the Senate Interim Committee on the Sanctity of Life. The\u00a0purpose of the committee\u00a0is to determine how clinics in Missouri dispose of the tissue of aborted babies, whether any state funding has been used to facilitate abortions, and whether the health care provider has broken any state laws.<\/p>\n

\"DefundAd-400b\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Kansas City Star<\/a> reports that earlier this week,\u00a0the committee met to receive\u00a0public feedback on the investigation, and that many citizens spoke out in favor of the University of Missouri\u00a0distancing itself from abortion providers.<\/p>\n

As the scandal surrounding Planned Parenthood grows, it is becoming more and more evident to voters, organizations, and schools that America does not need Planned Parenthood<\/a>.<\/p>\n
