President Trump Exposes Planned Parenthood
By David Closson
Earlier this week Planned Parenthood reportedly rejected an offer from President Donald Trump that would have allowed the "health care provider†to continue receiving $500 million dollars in annual federal funding on the one condition that the organization discontinue providing abortion services. Not surprisingly, the proposal was rejected immediately.
In a statement to the New York Times, President Trump said:
"As I said throughout the campaign, I am pro-life and I am deeply committed to investing in women’s health and plan to significantly increase federal funding in support of non-abortion services such as cancer screenings,†he said. "Polling shows the majority of Americans oppose public funding for abortion, even those who identify as pro-choice. There is an opportunity for organizations to continue the important work they do in support of women’s health, while not providing abortion services.â€
President Trump’s offer to Planned Parenthood, the largest provider of abortions in the United States, is significant on several fronts.
First, the President exposed Planned Parenthood’s fallacious "3% claim.â€
Planned Parenthood has alleged for years that abortion services comprise only 3% of their business. Although this claim has been repeatedly debunked, Planned Parenthood has publicly argued that they are a holistic women’s health organization and that abortion is only one service among many that they offer.
