915: the number of pink crosses pro-lifers staked into the lawn of the Capitol on the morning of Oct. 31.
915: also the number of babies aborted daily in the U.S. by Planned Parenthood. And according to a pro-life organizer, that number could double under ObamaCare.
Students for Life of America (SFLA) along with the Christian Defense Coalition (CDC) hosted an event titled “Exposing the Abortion Trifecta: Sebelius, Obamacare, Planned Parenthood” at the Capitol on October 31. As a call on Congress to defund Planned Parenthood, activists staked 915 crosses into the ground, each representing a baby aborted that day in the U.S. by Planned Parenthood.
Via a press conference, CDC's Rev. Patrick Mahoney and SFLA’s Kristan Hawkins introduced their campaign. Mahoney noted the date and stressed, “The scariest thing you can see in Washington, D.C. on Halloween are these 915 crosses on the lawn of the Capitol.”
Continuing with the scary theme, Hawkins noted that “If Obamacare goes through, abortions will increase.”
“When you and I are paying for an insurance plan that someone else couldn't afford that now has abortions, they're going to go up,” she emphasized. She laid out the consequences: “Planned Parenthood is going to be more than a $1 billion industry. They're going to be a $2 billion industry.”
Hawkins said that Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius had been “in bed with Planned Parenthood since she took office.” According to Hawkins, Sebelius “mandated that every insurance provider in the state exchanges has to cover Planned Parenthood services.” She repeated, “They're in bed together. That's why we were calling them the abortion trifecta.”
