Stop the Planned Parenthood Bailout

I learned about this on facebook. Ron Miller had joined the group. I clicked the link and also joined.

Here's the basic info from the facebook group page:

Abortion groups have submitted their 50 page proposal to the Obama-Biden transition team. At the top of the list? More taxpayer dollars for abortion organizations like Planned Parenthood. 

How much more? 

Over 1.5 billion dollars more! 

The Abortion Bailout Package: 

$1 BILLION dollars in taxpayer funding for International Abortion Groups 

$700 million in taxpayer funding for “Title X” Health Clinics (aka your local Planned Parenthood affiliate) 

$65 million for the UNFPA, an international aid organization connected to coercive abortion as part of China’s coercive one-child policy 

Repeal the Hyde Amendment – Vastly expanding federal taxpayer funding for abortions 

Include Abortion coverage in any taxpayer-subsidized national health care program

Expand taxpayer-funded abortions on military bases 

Expand taxpayer-funded abortions through the Peace Corps program 

Expand taxpayer-funded abortions for federal prisoners 

Send a letter to your Senators today demanding that they keep your tax dollars out of the pockets of abortion providers.

SIGN THE PETITION:

I also went to the site and completed the form to support the effort which emailed a letter to both my senators, Benjamin Cardin and Barbara Mikulski, of Maryland.

This effort is supported and sponsored by the Susan B. Anthony List at http://www.sba-list.org

The quote listed in the header of this blog is an abridgment of a quote of Ezra Taft Benson. Here it is in it's entirety:

In times as serious as these, we must not permit fear of criticism to keep us from doing our duty, even at the risk of our counsel being tabbed as political, as government becomes more and more entwined in our daily lives. In the crisis through which we are now passing, we have been fully warned. There are some of us who do not want to hear the message. It embarrasses us. The things which are threatening our lives, our welfare, our freedoms are the very things some of us have been condoning. Many do not want to be disturbed as they continue to enjoy their comfortable complacency. There can be no neutrality! We are, or we are not, on the side of the Lord! (Ezra Taft Benson, 1973)
