New York state has long been perceived as a liberal bastion where Planned Parenthood can get whatever it wants.
That perception is actually incorrect, and recent events in New York demonstrate that. The truth is that there are seven counties in the state that can be counted on to side with Planned Parenthood—Manhattan, Bronx, Brooklyn, Staten Island, Queens, Westchester, and Albany. The remainder of the state is conservative. Unfortunately, there are enough people living in those seven counties to elect the state governor Planned Parenthood wants. However, there are sufficient members of the state legislature from the conservative parts of the state to block much of Planned Parenthood’s agenda.
This situation is the reason that, although Planned Parenthood has tried since 1986 to get mandatory K-12 sex programs in every school district in the state, it has failed to even come close.
This year, Planned Parenthood was determined to get its Women’s Agenda passed as part of the state budget. The Women’s Agenda encompassed 13 provisions, which included increased access to contraception and abortion and plans for more comprehensive sex education in the state. Regarding sex programs, the Women’s Agenda included a requirement that the state establish a “Be Aware, Be Informed” program that was to include a model comprehensive sex education curriculum sanctioned, of course, by Planned Parenthood.
The purpose of STOPP International is really quite simple. We intend to cause such discontent with Planned Parenthood programs that it will have no choice but to close its doors and get out of town! That doesn't seem like too much to ask of an organization that has been ruthlessly attacking our children for years-abusing them in the womb and in the classroom.
