The proposed Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 is all about making changes in matters that have major impact on the U.S. economy. As members of Congress work on this legislation, American Life League is asking that they make one very fundamental change.
"We are calling on Congress to ensure that Planned Parenthood Federation of America and its affiliates do not wind up with windfall profits from this Act," said Jim Sedlak, president of American Life League.
"In the past," said Sedlak, "Planned Parenthood has been very adept at exploiting large bills such as this to obtain more money for its coffers. It took in $336.7 million in taxpayer funding last year and is crying for more. We are asking members of Congress to add the following 18 words to this Act:
"None of the funds made available under this Act shall be available to Planned Parenthood for any purpose.
"As Planned Parenthood comes under increasing scrutiny for its financial dealings with the government," Sedlak continued, "it only makes sense to be cautious and make sure that none of the $700 billion in this Act will reach the organization in any way. This is a common-sense addendum to the Act, and we trust members of Congress will do the right thing."
Please, call your Senators and Representative NOW and ask that they ensure Planned Parenthood does not profit from our economic crisis. Demand they add the 18 words above to the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008.

That's pretty twisted. They're asking Congress to deny money to a very major reproductive health charity.
"reproductive health charity" ... PP is the icon of abortion and promiscuity.
PP provides women with discount contraception and a wide range of comprehensive health services. They're main goal is preventing unwanted pregnancies, not ending them.
... and yet they are the number one provider of abortion in American (300,000 unborn babies killed per year). I don't want my tax dollars supporting this gruesome legacy.
So that pretty much means you do not support preventative measures that leads to unwanted pregnancies, which will only increase the number of abortions.
No, it means I don't want my tax dollars going to an organization that was founded on eugenic principles, is the number one killer of unborn children in the world and promotes promiscuity. I don't think this is too much to ask.
Well then, I assume you prefer having your taxes go to social programs that help these mothers raise their children?
