UNDERCOVER STUDENT VIDEO LEADS TO LAWMAKERS STRIPPING PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT FOR PLANNED PARENTHOOD AFFILIATES IN TENNESSEE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
UNDERCOVER STUDENT VIDEO LEADS TO LAWMAKERS STRIPPING PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT FOR PLANNED PARENTHOOD AFFILIATES IN TENNESSEE
Legislature passes bill to make funding of public health providers priority over state’s Planned Parenthood affiliates
Contact: Lila Rose, lilarose@liveaction.org, 408-497-3982
LOS ANGELES - Inspired by undercover videos from a Planned Parenthood clinic in Memphis released earlier this year, Tennessee legislators passed a law yesterday that threatens to strip Planned Parenthood of over $1 million in federal grant funding. The videos show a counselor urging a 14-year-old girl to lie about the age of the 31-year-old "boyfriend" who impregnated her so she can obtain a secret abortion.
“We are very happy that Tennessee legislators saw the harm Planned Parenthood is doing to little girls and took the necessary steps to ensure that the organization's negligence will no longer receive preferential treatment when taking our tax dollars,” said Lila Rose, president of Live Action and the UCLA student who went undercover in the videos.
Under the new statute, local community health clinics will be given priority for Title X family planning funds instead of Planned Parenthood.
This is the second state this year in which Live Action videos showing abuse cover-up at Planned Parenthood prompted public officials to revoke taxpayer subsides. In California, after a community member alerted the Orange County Board of Supervisors to more of Live Action’s undercover videos of Planned Parenthood counselors agreeing to protect adult-child sexual relationships, the Board in March refused to renew Planned Parenthood’s $291,788 contract with the county.
The undercover videos are part of the Mona Lisa Project, a multi-state expose that documents Planned Parenthood's willingness to repeatedly violate mandatory reporting laws for statutory rape in order to obtain secret abortions for young girls. The Memphis video is the 5th video released in the series so far. See all videos here: http://liveaction.org/monalisa/ .
“We will continue to expose Planned Parenthood for endangering the lives and well-being of young girls in service of its abortion-first mentality,” said Rose. “It is our hope that other elected officials will soon follow the examples of Orange County and Tennessee in seeking to de-fund Planned Parenthood of all public subsidies for their lawless activity.”

Please Pray for Stellan
Hi all, this is MckMama's sister, Hilary.
My sister ended up taking Stellan to the ER this afternoon. As I'm sure you know, Stellan has been having many break-throughs of SVT and performing vagel maneuvers just isn't going to suffice anymore for Stellan's long-term plan.
After a bit of trying, they were able to get an IV into Stellan's foot and successfully converted him by using adenosine. As per Dr. B's orders, they are admitting Stellan into the PICU and will further decide what to do from here. It seems as though some new combination of medicines will need to be tried to keep Stellan's SVT under control.
UPDATE: I just spoke with my sister on the phone (6:30pm central time) and Stellan has flipped back into SVT.
So please join me in praying for healing of Stellan's heart and for peace in the hearts of my sister and her family as they deal with this stressful situation.
Lord, wrap your arms around my sister and her family. Fill them with peace and trust as they travel through this "storm." You are our Comfort, our Shelter and our Healer. We beseech you, Lord, to interevene right now and cause Stellan's heart to beat in the rhythm it was meant to! Help us to keep our eyes focused on You. Amen.
Thank you all!
Blessings,
Hilary
New Stanek WND column, "Abortion vs. cat 'murders'"
... In April someone began mutilating and killing cats in 2 Miami-Dade neighborhoods. The outcry with demands to make it stop were instant.
Animal cruelty is despicable. Only sick people hurt and kill defenseless animals. That's how Jeffrey Dahmer got his start.
But knowing the same sorts of torturous acts are committed every day against human beings in at least 25 Miami area abortion clinics with no public protest makes me a little crazy. These would include... an abortion survivor who was suffocated in a plastic bag and thrown on the clinic roof for a week until he was so infested by maggots he couldn't be properly autopsied....
Mainstream media accounts attempting to humanize, dramatize and describe the cat killings in contrast to how they attempt to dehumanize, sanitize and obfuscate abortion make me a little crazy. Some excerpts:
"At a news conference... city and county leaders... reassured the community that the 'reign of terror' was over." (CBS) "... the killing spree..." (KPLG) "... [M]y heart goes out to those families who have lost their dear kitties 'cause I understand that pet owners feel very strongly about their little family members.... To see them so violated and so mutilated just defies all common sense and is painful for everyone involved. Thankfully... the terror has come to an end. And what of the perpetrator, depraved, demented, twisted." - Miami-Dade Commissioner Katy Sorenson (CBS) "... a slew of brutal cat murders and mutilations..." (CBS)...
