Last week we released our video report “Hooking Kids on Sex,” which was chock full of shocking, graphic pictures from Planned Parenthood events and its sex indoctrination materials for children. After a claim by a former Planned Parenthood intern, it was removed from YouTube.

We are working hard to get the new edition on the Internet. Keep your eye on our website, www.stopp.org, and watch your inbox for our press release announcing the video’s release. In the meantime, it is absolutely critical that local people protect children by getting Planned Parenthood’s obscene, disgusting materials into the hands of parents and those who are making decisions at schools and in community settings about whether to allow Planned Parenthood presentations and curriculum.

Every Catholic bishop in the United States has spoken out in opposition to the Planned Parenthood-orchestrated mandate that tramples on religious freedom—requiring religious institutions and people of faith to pay for insurance that provides free abortifacient birth control and sterilization.

Now 2,500 religious leaders across the faith spectrum have signed a letter echoing the bishops’ concerns. “No church should be forced to concede their faith to kneel at the altar of government. And until the administration rights this wrong, we unite with our allies in diverse faith traditions in demanding what George Washington called ‘the invaluable rights of free citizens,’” said Tony Perkins, head of the Family Research Council, in a February 20 letter addressed to the Obama administration.

The Obama administration has demanded that we defy our faith in favor of its mandate so that birth control can be provided “free of charge” to all—a plan which was put together and pushed incessantly from the beginning by Planned Parenthood.

Obama’s mandate echoes the tyrant Antiochus’s attempts to force the Jewish leader Eleazar into submission in the second century B.C. Antiochus decreed that all Jews should be forced to eat pork publicly in violation of their faith. If they refused, they would be submitted to a torturous death.

Hampton Roads pro-life activist Louantha Kerr sends the following action request from Virginia:

Planned Parenthood of Virginia Beach has requested that the Virginia Department of Health approve a Certificate of Public Need (COPN VA 7844) which would allow Planned Parenthood to expand its facility on Newtown Road in Virginia Beach, by adding two operating rooms and by upgrading to outpatient surgical hospital status.

Regardless of what Planned Parenthood states about its desire to provide benign or helpful gynecological services to poor uninsured women, we know that approval of its request would allow the organization to expand its abortion business. We here in the Hampton Roads Community are deeply concerned that this would include second trimester abortions.

Dallas, Texas, pro-life groups turned out in force to oppose Planned Parenthood at a fundraiser headlined by Planned Parenthood head Cecile Richards on February 16. Inside the event, Richards said that Planned Parenthood’s relationship with Komen is even stronger than it was before Komen attempted to drop Planned Parenthood funding. We describe in the February 2 Wednesday STOPP Report the mafia-style shakedown that Planned Parenthood executed against Komen because of the attempted defunding.

Protest organizer JoAnn Murray, leader of STOPP of Dallas, reports that, while Richards was gloating inside the fundraiser, there were more than 85 people praying outside the fundraiser and providing public witness to the evil agenda of Planned Parenthood. A bus carried 28 people from the northern suburbs to the protest, and along the way they prayed our Consecration of the Fight Against Planned Parenthood to Jesus through Mary prayer. The prayer can be downloaded and printed here. The protesters carried The Pill Kills signs, pictures from our campaign to Bring Jesus to Planned Parenthood through Mary, and many other signs exposing the evil agenda of Planned Parenthood.

JoAnn expressed delight with the outcome, citing Our Blessed Mother’s aid as key:

And did [Our Lady] ever surprise us with one good thing happening after another! Not only was the media there, but they actually interviewed at length a number of our people. We made the 4 o'clock and 9 o'clock news with Karen Garnett's statement that the pill is classified as a Group 1 carcinogen and a homemade sign stating that fact being shown. It was the last sign and statement we thought the news would put on, but then, we have a mighty God! The Dallas Morning News also ran a video clip online.

Karen Garnett, executive director of the Catholic Pro-Life Committee, was featured on the local Fox News station. She stood behind a sign that read “The Pill is a Group 1 Carcinogen” during an on-camera interview, and she is quoted on the news station website saying, “Planned Parenthood enjoys a kind of sanitized reputation and the truth needs to be exposed that the products that they have are carcinogenic. They do do abortions. They kill children, and their agenda is to hook children on sex. If you see their materials, they are graphic, vulgar, obscene and offensive.”
