“From June 2009 until April 2010, nine ambulances have been at Planned Parenthood [St. Louis] and each time a client was transported to Barnes Hospital,” said sidewalk counselor Marty Bennet in a written statement.

These calls are undoubtedly just the tip of the iceberg. National pro-life groups are not aware of ambulance calls to Planned Parenthood the great majority of the time. But local pro-lifers witness them on a regular basis. Planned Parenthood’s promotion of “safe abortion” is a farce. Its war on women continues on every level, including the sacrifice of women’s lives in order to insure its seemingly never-ending supply of taxpayer money. Planned Parenthood must be defunded. Today those who care about women, children and our nation must work diligently to elect officials at every level who will pledge to defund the abortion giant. Without taxpayer money, the abortion giant will fall.
