ACLJ Letter: Shockwaves as Planned Parenthood Steals Virus Relief Funds

By |2020-05-24T18:20:04+00:00May 24th, 2020|ACLJ, Planned Parenthood|

Planned Parenthood unlawfully obtained $80 million in Coronavirus relief. We warned you they would exploit this pandemic.

This revelation is sending shockwaves through Capitol Hill. At the ACLJ, we’re taking action TODAY.

Sign the Petition Now

We aggressively fought to help ensure that Planned Parenthood – a multi-billion-dollar abortion business – was NOT eligible for funding under the Coronavirus relief bill – funds that are intended for small businesses and churches.

Yet 37 of the abortion giant’s 49 affiliates (75%) inappropriately applied for and unlawfully received tens of millions of taxpayer dollars.

Planned Parenthood and House Speaker Pelosi tried to get this funding in the CARES Act – and FAILED. We helped ensure that the law prohibited Planned Parenthood from getting a dime.

Now, we’re taking direct action TODAY, filing a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to find out how Planned Parenthood unlawfully obtained these funds, whether it committed fraud, and whether it engaged in any other illegal actions. Planned Parenthood must be FORCED to give this money back. NOW.

But we urgently need you as we take legal action today over Planned Parenthood’s unlawful funding.

Sign Petition: Don’t Let Planned Parenthood Exploit Relief Bill.

ACLJ Letter: Pelosi Weaponizing Coronavirus for Planned Parenthood

By |2020-03-13T19:38:48+00:00March 13th, 2020|ACLJ, Planned Parenthood|

In breaking news, Speaker Nancy Pelosi is weaponizing the Coronavirus crisis to fund the abortion agenda.

This is demonic.

Right now, the vital funding package needed to address the Coronavirus is being held up by Speaker Pelosi and the extreme pro-abortion Left because they are demanding abortion funding in the bill.

This is literally worshiping at the altar of abortion.

Speaker Pelosi says the bill is about “testing,” “it’s about seniors and people with disabilities.” But she is hiding something horrific.

Speaker Pelosi tried to slip funding for Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry into the Coronavirus (COVID-19) funding bill – trying to circumvent federal law that specifically prohibits direct funding for abortion. We’re talking about a billion dollars in taxpayer funding for abortion under the guise of addressing the Coronavirus.

She was caught, and we’re fighting back. We’re demanding Congress remove this abortion language. Do your job to protect America from this national emergency. Abortion has NO PLACE in funding to combat the virus.

But we need Congress to hear from you TODAY. This is urgent.

Sign Our NEW Petition: No Abortion Funding in COVID-19 Bill.

ACLJ Letter: PP War Chest & NY Deadline

By |2020-03-03T16:14:17+00:00March 3rd, 2020|ACLJ, Judiciary, Planned Parenthood|

March 2, 2020

Planned Parenthood has just set aside tens of millions of dollars to defeat the pro-life agenda nationwide.

Today is a major deadline as we fight back against the abortion industry.

Planned Parenthood is prepared to spend its record abortion profits and exorbitant taxpayer funding to defeat all of us. In fact, its latest report shows that while the abortion rate is at record lows nationwide, Planned Parenthood committed more abortions in the last year than ever before – 345,672.

But as outrageous as this is, it gets worse.

A California jury has awarded Planned Parenthood millions more from pro-life advocates for exposing the harvesting and selling of aborted babies’ body parts.

We’re preparing an appeal to have this injustice OVERTURNED. Tomorrow is a critical deadline in a related case against the abortion industry.

And TODAY is a major deadline in another critical case defending pro-life pregnancy centers in New York City, located in the same State that passed the most expansive and barbaric abortion bill just last year.

Today we are also launching our March Matching Challenge. Any gift you give today will be DOUBLED to defend life and defeat the abortion industry. But to win, we urgently need your Tax-Deductible support. $5 becomes $10; $20 becomes $40.

Have Your Gift Doubled to Defeat the Abortion Industry Today.

ACLJ Letter: Senate Votes

By |2020-03-03T15:51:32+00:00March 3rd, 2020|ACLJ, House & Senate, Planned Parenthood|

Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry are becoming more extreme by the day.

They are trying to defeat EVERY pro-life law and bill nationwide. And now they are trying to even defeat efforts to protect babies who have already been born. Abortion isn’t enough for them. It’s sick.

Tomorrow there are two critical votes scheduled in the U.S. Senate to defend life. One will ban gruesome late-term abortions, when babies can feel the pain of being killed. The other will protect innocent babies born alive from infanticide.

The abortion lobby is demanding Senators vote AGAINST these commonsense protections. That’s how extreme they are.

Right now, we’re aggressively engaged on Capitol Hill urging support for these bills that could save countless babies . At the same time, we’re in federal court in two critical cases against both Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry regarding the harvesting and selling of aborted babies’ body parts.

We’re about to appeal our case against Planned Parenthood to stop an unjust jury award that gave the abortion giant millions of dollars.

As we battle to defeat Planned Parenthood and defend unborn babies in cases across the nation – including on Capitol Hill and at the Supreme Court – we need your support before our deadlines.

ACLJ Letter: Planned Parenthood Emboldened – Does More Abortions Than Ever!

By |2020-03-03T15:32:11+00:00March 3rd, 2020|ACLJ, Planned Parenthood|

Planned Parenthood is EMBOLDENED as it worships at the altar of abortion.

It killed more babies than ever before – 345,672 in a single year – even while the national abortion rate was at an all-time low. It also took more of your tax-dollars than ever before.

Now it is setting aside tens of millions of dollars (including from its exorbitant profits and $616 million taxpayer windfall) to destroy the pro-life agenda nationwide.

But here’s where it gets worse – A LOT WORSE – a California jury has awarded Planned Parenthood millions more from pro-life advocates for exposing the harvesting and selling of aborted babies’ body parts.

We’re preparing an appeal to have this injustice REVERSED; but first there is one final, critical issue before the judge at the trial level. Just hours ago, Planned Parenthood responded to our latest brief. And we are ramping up our defense in another lawsuit involving the abortion industry.

As we battle to defeat Planned Parenthood and defend unborn babies in cases across the nation – including at the Supreme Court – we need your support.
