Regardless of\u00a0whether StemExpress violated patient confidentiality,\u00a0several key pieces of evidence indicate that there is a market for fetal body parts, and that a profit is being made &#8211; and the Times fails to address this evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Last month the Select Panel revealed a <a href=\"\/news\/congresswoman-condemns-fetal-tissue-procurement-this-is-online-shopping-for-baby-body-parts\/\">brochure<\/a> from a tissue procurement business marketing its services to abortion clinics as &#8220;financially profitable,&#8221; also using the phrases, &#8220;fiscally rewards,&#8221; and &#8220;financial benefit.&#8221; The Panel also discussed its discovery of an online shopping form for fetal body parts. The form includes options for gender, gestational age,\u00a0even shipping options.\u00a0Rep. Marsha Blackburn (pictured), chairwoman of the Select Panel, revealed last month that a &#8220;<a href=\"\/news\/blackburn-fetal-body-parts-profit-motive-structure-harms-women-and-babies\/\">profit motive structure<\/a>&#8221; has been created in the fetal body parts market, including the charging of tax on the sale of fetal brains.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/AbortionProcedures.com\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-88619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN.jpg\" alt=\"levatino-ad-LAN\" width=\"306\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN.jpg 306w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/levatino-ad-LAN-300x221.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 306px) 100vw, 306px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On the Select Panel&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/energycommerce.house.gov\/news-center\/press-releases\/select-investigative-panel-issues-interim-update-house\">website<\/a>, Majority Whip\u00a0Steve Scalise explains, \u201cBased on what\u2019s been uncovered so far, everything continues to point to abortion clinics and middlemen breaking federal laws to profit off the disgusting practice of selling baby body parts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a business model that puts a priority on revenue above all else, even before the safety and well-being of young women and innocent babies,&#8221; adds Rep.
