ObamaCare Funnels $1 Million to Planned Parenthood

Despite President Obama's Executive Order 13535 of March, 24 2010 promising that taxpayer dollars wouldn't fund abortion, government reports have documented that ObamaCare is indeed funding abortion, and this week, the Obama administration announced new grants to Planned Parenthood of over a million dollars as just a first-year down payment — as though the current >$500 million dollars from taxpayers isn't enough.

-- From "Planned Parenthood gets $1M Obamacare grant, sparks GOP fury" by Amy R. Connolly, UPI 9/3/15

The Obama administration announced nearly $70 million in federal grants to groups promoting the healthcare law. Those grants will go to 100 groups in 34 states, including three Planned Parenthood affiliates in Iowa, Missouri and Montana. They will receive about $1 million in all.

Republican lawmakers blasted the funding, some saying it's "unconscionable" in light of nine undercover videos released by anti-abortion activist group Center for Medical Progress purporting to expose the organization's selling of aborted fetuses. Some GOP leaders have called for the organization to be completely defunded.

From "Planned Parenthood gets $1M in ObamaCare grants" by Sarah Ferris, The Hill 9/2/15

Rep. Diane Black (R-Tenn.) blasted the White House’s decision as “unconscionable” in light of allegations of illegal activity in the health provider’s fetal tissue program, which has prompted key Republicans to call for a total defunding of the organization.

“A growing body of evidence suggests that Planned Parenthood broke federal law and now the Obama administration is thumbing its nose at Congress and taxpayers by using this backdoor maneuver to boost funding for the scandal-ridden abortion giant,” Black wrote in a statement Wednesday.

She is the lead author of three bills to defund Planned Parenthood, one of which she says has been promised a vote by House GOP leadership.

From "Obama Sends $1 Million to Planned Parenthood in Three States After It Sells Aborted Baby Parts" by Steven Ertelt, LifeNews.com 9/2/15

The Obama administration send federal grants using taxpayer dollars to Planned Parenthood abortion corporation affiliates in Iowa, Missouri and Montana to help them sign up new customers for Obamacare, which pays for abortions with taxpayer funds.

“This is unconscionable. A growing body of evidence suggests that Planned Parenthood broke federal law and now the Obama Administration is thumbing its nose at Congress and taxpayers by using this backdoor maneuver to boost funding for the scandal-ridden abortion giant,” she told LifeNews.com. “This is all the more reason for the House to immediately pass my legislation, the Defund Planned Parenthood Act, which would freeze all federal funding to the organization – including navigator grants. As I’ve said in the past, the best time to act on this bill was before the start of the August district work period, but better late than never. The American people expect a bold response to the atrocities at Planned Parenthood and it’s time Congress delivered.”
