Pro-Abortionists Lament There are 10 Pregnancy Centers for Every Abortion Clinic in Texas


By Dave Andrusko
National Right to Life


The language pro-abortionists employ to describe Pregnancy Centers/Crisis Pregnancy Centers betrays not only their determination not to understand what these women-helping centers actually do, but also a willingness to freely distort to the point of absurdity.

When it comes to talking about their nemesis, the actions of the Abortion Industry are the reverse of the three wise monkeys: they only see, hear, and speak evil of “fake clinics.”

For example, the Abortion Industry’s Leader of the Pack—Planned Parenthood—kills 320,000+ babies a year. They are a $1.4 billion “non-profit” primarily because of the revenue their abortion carnage brings in.

PPFA is richly compensated annually by the federal government to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. They benefit from other government sources as well and a growing amount of that comes from private sources.

For example, not so long ago, according to a story in the Dallas Morning News, an anonymous donor promised $9 million earmarked for Planned Parenthood clinics in West Texas.

So when I subsequently read the first paragraph from the pro-abortion website Rewire.News I can only shake my head in disbelief:

Among the Texas fake clinics identified by Rewire.News, more than 50 receive state funding through a program created by the Republican-controlled legislature in 2005.

That’s pennies on the dollars compared to the pipeline through which public and private resources stream into the abortion industry’s coffers. It’s a faucet drip compared to a river. If I were the author of the Rewire.News piece, I’d be embarrassed.

But there is a lot of good news in the post, which, of course, is bad news for them. Here are a few examples…

For every abortion provider in Texas, there are ten crisis pregnancy centers or fake clinics [a total of 200], staffed by anti-choice activists trying to dissuade people from seeking abortion services.

Ah, yes, these clinics are trying to dissuade “people” (otherwise known as women) from aborting. And the reason there are ten times more of them than there are abortion clinics is that they are almost entirely staffed by women, the overwhelming percentage of whom are volunteers.

Texas Will Defund Planned Parenthood, Cancels $3.1 Million in Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Biz

Life News


Texas officials gave final notice to Planned Parenthood on Tuesday that its taxpayer funding is going away.
The abortion chain in Texas currently receives $3.1 million in Medicaid funds. The final notice from the Texas Health and Human Services on Tuesday told the abortion group that it will be kicked out of the taxpayer-funded program in 30 days, the Texas Tribune reports.

State officials said Planned Parenthood’s potentially illegal sales of aborted babies’ body parts was a key reason for the move.
In the final notice letter, department Inspector General Stuart Bowen said the undercover videos that exposed Planned Parenthood’s actions showed that “Planned Parenthood violated state and federal law.” He said the abortion group showed a “willingness to charge more than the costs incurred for procuring fetal tissue.”
“Your misconduct is directly related to whether you are qualified to provide medical services in a professionally competent, safe, legal and ethical manner,” Bowen wrote in the letter. “Your actions violate generally accepted medical standards, as reflected in state and federal law, and are Medicaid program violations that justify termination.”
Several weeks ago, a U.S. Congressional investigation released evidence that Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast in Texas “broke the law when it sold aborted baby remains for profit to the University of Texas.” The U.S. House panel referred the case to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for further review.
