Bevin&#8217;s office asserts<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">Attached to Planned Parenthood\u2019s license application were purported \u201ctransfer agreements,\u201d which are essential prerequisites for a license. Transfer agreements are not only essential for obtaining a license, but they are also essential for ensuring the safety of patients. Despite the importance of these agreements, the documents submitted by Planned Parenthood were a complete sham.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>During that time period, Planned Parenthood continued to operate its clinic in Louisville, KY, despite the reality facing women who went there. If a woman needed to be transported to a hospital, no agreement was in place to get her the best treatment in the case of an emergency. The abortionist could, in effect, opt out of her treatment, as he or she would be under no obligation to inform the emergency room doctors what had went wrong during the abortion. In addition to the real dangers facing women, Planned Parenthood&#8217;s actions were also illegal.<\/p>\n<p>The governor&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/kentucky.gov\/Pages\/Activity-stream.aspx?n=KentuckyGovernor&amp;prId=34\">office notes:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">Despite the fact that Planned Parenthood did not have an abortion facility license, and the glaringly obvious fact that it did not have transfer agreements in place, <strong>Planned Parenthood knowingly and callously endangered the lives of its patients and began performing abortions<\/strong> at its facility on December 3, 2015.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"\/news\/kentucky-governor-sues-planned-parenthood-operating-unlicensed-abortion-facility\/plannedparenthoodweb\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-88319\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-88319\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/PlannedParenthoodWeb.jpg\" alt=\"Planned+Parenthood+Web\" width=\"469\" height=\"264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/PlannedParenthoodWeb.jpg 469w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/PlannedParenthoodWeb-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 469px) 100vw, 469px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Gov. Bevin&#8217;s office<a href=\"http:\/\/kentucky.gov\/Pages\/Activity-stream.aspx?n=KentuckyGovernor&amp;prId=34\"> also says<\/a> that the previous administration aided\u00a0 the abortion profiteer by ignoring the law and going beyond the scope of their authority:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">On December 7, 2015, one day before the Beshear Administration left office, the then head of the Cabinet\u2019s Office of Inspector General, Maryellen Mynear, ignored or overlooked these facts and retroactively confirmed to Planned Parenthood that it was a \u201clong standing OIG policy\u201d that abortion clinics could begin operations without a license.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">The reality, however, is that the Cabinet had never had such a policy relating to abortion facilities. Mynear\u2019s actions ignored clear statutory law and were without authority&#8230;. Planned Parenthood was seeking to accelerate the licensure process to be completed before its sympathetic advocate willing to ignore the law, Mynear, left the Cabinet for a new job in early January, 2016.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Planned Parenthood <a href=\"http:\/\/www.courier-journal.com\/story\/news\/politics\/ky-governor\/2016\/02\/18\/bevin-sues-planned-parenthood-over-abortions\/80562202\/\">claims<\/a> the governor&#8217;s office is playing politics:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">We ask that the executive branch continue the licensure process rather than continue to make politically motivated accusations.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And\u00a0Betty Cockrum, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.courier-journal.com\/story\/news\/politics\/ky-governor\/2016\/02\/18\/bevin-sues-planned-parenthood-over-abortions\/80562202\/\">said<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">We in no way, shape or form would contemplate offering abortion procedures in anything but a legal environment.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Operation Rescue President <a href=\"http:\/\/www.operationrescue.org\/archives\/kentucky-sues-planned-parenthood-over-illegal-abortion-scheme\/\">Troy Newman offered his take<\/a> on the\u00a0 actions of Planned Parenthood:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">It looks like the previous pro-abortion administration tried to pull a fast one by getting Planned Parenthood into the abortion business before a new administration could realize that it did not meet the requirements of the law. This is political corruption at its worst. Planned Parenthood has very powerful political allies that will do anything, including committing crimes and endangering women, to benefit or cover up for Planned Parenthood. That is not just in Kentucky, but nationwide. This incident is once [sic] more case in evidence of that.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.operationrescue.org\/archives\/kentucky-sues-planned-parenthood-over-illegal-abortion-scheme\/\">Newman added<\/a>, &#8220;The law is clearly against Planned Parenthood and no amount of claiming to be the victim will weasel them out of this one.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kentucky.gov\/Pages\/Activity-stream.aspx?n=KentuckyGovernor&amp;prId=34\">Gov.
