"Family Planning" needs to stay out of Pennsylvania's budget!
As a registered Democrat who voted for you because of your pro-life platform, I am deeply disturbed by reports that you intend to keep "Family Planning" in Pennsylvania's budget. In addition to flying in the face of sound fiscal judgment, the funding of "Family Planning" simply caters to the financial interests of those who promote contraceptives and so-called contraceptives (i.e., abortifacients) with cavalier disregard for public health and morality.
Take condoms as just one example: "condoms crowd pharmacy shelves and restroom walls, leering at potential users and proclaiming the merits of 'family planning' and 'safe sex' on their vividly-colored packages. Unfortunately, members of the public uncritically accept the government, and the condom manufacturers, at their word....If condoms are so effective at preventing pregnancy and AIDS transmission, why do nations that stress their use continue to experience a rapidly-escalating rate of teen pregnancy and an exploding AIDS epidemic?....The only way to completely eradicate all STDs is to follow God's plan for our sexual lives: Abstinence before marriage and fidelity after....If parachutes had the abysmal safety record that condoms do, skydiving would have been outlawed long ago....Good Housekeeping Magazine will not even accept condom advertisements, because they are not reliable enough for its 'Seal of Approval.'[60]" (Brian Clowes, Ph.D., Death by Latex, 2006)
