CNSNews correspondent Dawn Rizzoni reports on Planned Parenthood's exploitation of the Katrina tragedy to raise funds:
(CNSNews.com) - Planned Parenthood Federation of America, the nation's number one provider of abortions, is "exploiting the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina for its own financial gain," according to pro-life activists.Stop Planned Parenthood International (STOPP), a division of the pro-life group American Life League, points to Planned Parenthood's website, which asks for donations to help hurricane victims in the Gulf Coast region.
"100 [percent] of your tax-deductible contribution will go directly to helping Planned Parenthood affiliates and health centers in this region serve women and families who have nowhere else to turn," the Planned Parenthood website declares.read the rest here.But further down on the same site, it reads, "Your support is particularly important right now because Planned Parenthood is facing a truly tremendous number of challenges in the courtroom, in Washington D.C., and in our clinics. Donations made today will be used quickly, to ensure that Planned Parenthood is ready to tackle these challenges and to fight forward for reproductive and sexual health."
Pro-life critics say Planned Parenthood is using the theme of disaster relief to raise money for its own unrelated legal expenses.
