Planned Parenthood's Mission Continues...
|
Planned Parenthood sued Louisiana last week, complaining about the state's "delay" in giving the group an outpatient license to sell abortion.
Dan Fagan wrote a great piece about this in The Advocate yesterday.
There is no doubt Planned Parenthood is on a mission to dramatically increase abortions in NOLA, and, as they always do, they are resorting to the courts to impose their will. Many people still do not know the truth about Planned Parenthood. Remember, 9 out of 10 pregnant women who enter a Planned Parenthood abortion facility purchase an abortion. Make sure you tell others the truth!
For a Pro-Life Louisiana,
Benjamin Clapper
P.S. We hope you enjoy our refreshed e-newsletter and website! Kudos to Sandy Cunningham, our Communications Director, for her work in leading this effort!
We are always open to your ideas!

It has been 10 years since we launched our first website, and while that site served us well, it was time for a facelift. We have been working on this site a number of months, and we are excited to share it with you. Our redesigned website includes the information we provided before, but it has a fresher look and feel, with simplified menus and an easier navigation system. The home page offers a look at what’s going on and has quick links to events, donation sites, the store and more!

Send corrections and chapter news to sandy@prolifelouisiana.org.
