CONSERVATIVE ACTIVIST 1: "Now that we have the majority, Congressional leadership must send an Obamacare repeal bill to the President's desk! Even if he vetoes it, we must move conservative legislation through Congress and lay the responsibility on the President for blocking it."
ENTER STAGE RIGHT: H.R. 3762 NARRATOR: "H.R. 3762 is a bill passed by both the House and Senate that takes major steps to defund Planned Parenthood and dismantle Obamacare." CONSERVATIVE ACTIVIST 2: "Don't be fooled, folks! This is a useless show vote by McConnell and the RINOs so that they can say they voted to repeal Obamacare and defund Planned Parenthood, but they know it's just another fake show vote -- because President Obama will veto it!"

In the aftermath of a shocking undercover video (see below) showing a Planned Parenthood official talking about selling the body parts of aborted babies, there has been a renewed push to defund Planned Parenthood by cutting the $500,000,000+ that the organization receives annually from the federal government.
What makes this push unique is that not only is the Republican base calling to defund Planned Parenthood, but congressional leaders are as well. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) is leading the charge in the Senate, announcing that he will "demand a vote" to end taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood. So far four videos have been released and Planned Parenthood has learned the hard way that they may not be invincible. The first two videos showed two top Planned Parenthood officials negotiating a price with undercover reporters. The third video was an interview with a StemExpress employee. StemExpress is the company that buys organs from Planned Parenthood. Both the third and fourth video included footage of the extraction procedure of fetal organs. Planned Parenthood is currently arguing that they are only receiving compensation and not payment. The problem with this argument is that rather than charging a flat rate for the specimen (a.k.a. the corpse of a pre-born child), they are charging per organ recovered from the child. If StemExpress wants just the heart the cost is $75, but if they want the heart and the liver it is $150. StemExpress is in the clinic and does much of the extraction, they should not be charged per-organ. The videos are irrefutable evidence that Planned Parenthood is breaking the law. |
