Tell Mike Fitzpatrick to Stand Firm - No Tax Dollars for Planned Parenthood

Whether or not you agree with their methods, the investigative work of very young pro life activists like Lila Rose has opened a window on the heinous practices of Planned Parenthood. In addition to being the nation's # 1 abortion provider, their investigative work has revealed Planned Parenthood staff who are open to aiding human trafficking and the sexual abuse of minors! We have been afforded a unique opportunity and the momentum to insist that no more tax dollars go to this huge and wealthy organization. As per Rep. Mike Pence, "It's time to pick a fight." We need to stand with the next generation and encourage our brothers and sisters, who may be getting intimidated by this prospect....

As per the Susan B. Anthony list, "On March 15, 2011, the House of Representatives passed a three-week Continuing Resolution which failed to defund Planned Parenthood of all taxpayer dollars. Enough is enough. If Congress can't cut off taxpayer dollars to Planned Parenthood, a willing partner of the exploitation of women and young girls, then how can it be serious about cutting spending anywhere else?"

As explained by LifeNews.com, "Some 54 Republicans voted against the measure because they wanted to see the Pence Amendment de-funding Planned Parenthood and the pro-life riders that stop abortion funding in various instances included in the measure." It is a great disappointment that our own Congressman Mike Fitzpatrick voted for this Continuing Resolution, instead of standing firm with Mike Pence, Joe Pitts, Chris Smith & the 51 others in that group. For many of us, this was an absolutely confusing vote, which just leaves us scratching our heads!

Starting Monday, members of Congress are expected to be in their home districts. Please contact Mike Fitzpatrick, letting him know that you want him to oppose "any future continuing Resolutions that do not contain the Pence Amendment to defund Planned Parenthood."
