Even people who already knew a good deal about Planned Parenthood were shocked after viewing our investigative video report, “Hooking Kids on Sex.” It was so effective at showing Planned Parenthood’s depraved, sex-centered agenda that, due to a copyright claim by a former Planned Parenthood intern, the powerful tool in the fight against Planned Parenthood was removed by YouTube after only four days. During the four days it was on YouTube, the video report logged more than 200,000 views. Our upgraded video, “Hooking Kids on Sex II,” can be accessed at this permanent link: http://all.org/ppsexed.

I guarantee you will be steaming mad after seeing this video report exposing Planned Parenthood’s sexual exploitation of children. Let your anger lead you to positive action—action that can stop the child-abusing abortion giant in its tracks. Please follow this link to send a letter to your members of Congress asking them to view our new video and then do everything in their power to defund Planned Parenthood.

If you have already sent a letter inviting your members of Congress to view the video, you should resend it, since our original video report was taken down by YouTube within hours of our posting the letter for members of Congress. It is urgent that elected officials see this video and act immediately to stop all funding to Planned Parenthood.

ALL leadership firmly believes that Planned Parenthood used the copyright claim as a ploy to disrupt the viral explosion of the ALL Report. ALL has posted the new video on private servers in addition to YouTube so that Planned Parenthood cannot create disruptions with unsubstantiated claims. We have also engaged legal counsel, guaranteeing at the outset that the new video will not be taken down without a court order.

The new video report, “Hooking Kids on Sex II,” can be seen on YouTube and also this embeddable permalink on ALL’s private video server. When you recommend it to community leaders and elected officials, use the permanent link.

Once again, Planned Parenthood is knee deep in a coalition with government officials and morally bereft sex-pushing organizations, to the great detriment of American school children. The group is pushing to define and standardize the sex ed core curriculum, content, and skills for students in K-12.

The National Sexuality Education Standards are published by The Future of Sex Education (FoSE) Initiative, a partnership between Advocates for Youth, Answer, and the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the U.S. (SIECUS). All three organizations are intricately intertwined with Planned Parenthood.

Planned Parenthood leaders are on the Advisory Committee and among the additional reviewers of the FoSE National Standards. In addition, Douglas Kirby of ETR is on the list of additional reviewers. ETR began its existence as the education arm of Planned Parenthood of Santa Cruz, California.

SIECUS was launched in 1964 by the Kinsey Institute to teach the Kinsey philosophy of sex education in American schools. Dr. Mary Calderone, a former medical director at Planned Parenthood, was the first director of SIECUS.

Dr. Alfred Kinsey authored the “Kinsey Reports” in 1948 and 1953, which were the basis for a sexual revolution that promoted and sanctioned promiscuity, pornography, and homosexuality. Kinsey’s research was disproportionally based on surveys of prison inmates, sex offenders, and prostitutes.

Quoting Concerned Women of America’s report, A Nation Deceived:

To obtain data about the sexual behavior of children, Dr. Kinsey worked with trained pedophiles who sexually abused hundreds of children (as young as two months) to prove to the world that infants, toddlers, and juveniles could enjoy sex pre-puberty with the help of an adult. Their sexual torture was recorded as pleasure.

Family Watch International’s Special Report on Comprehensive Sexuality Education, highlights comments by Dr. Miriam Grossman. Dr. Grossman is one of the top experts on sex education in the United States. She warned about the dangers of SIECUS, Planned Parenthood, and comprehensive sex education at a parallel event given during the UN Commission on the Status of Women in 2010.

In a nutshell, Kinsey was convinced that traditional morality is irrelevant and destructive. For this man it was “anything goes” when it came to sexuality. And I mean anything. He believed that pedophiles were misunderstood and that their punishments were unjust. Sexuality is not an appetite to be curbed, Kinsey insisted. He taught it and he lived it.

Answer promotes a Teen-to-Teen Sexuality Education Initiative called Sex, Etc. It offers the usual Planned Parenthood fare, including links to Planned Parenthood websites, advice on how to skirt your parents, immoral sexual advice, abortion rights information, gay rights information, and instructions on how to have gay sex. Its website features a video claiming that when it comes to sex, “parents obviously don’t have the answers, and teenagers still need them. That’s where honest sex ed comes in.”

Advocates for Youth was founded in 1980 and was originally called “Center for Population Options.” It was founded by Joy Dryfoos, who is often considered the "mother" of the School Based Health Clinic (SBHC) movement. It mirrors Planned Parenthood’s philosophy with its facilitation of immoral, dangerous sexual behavior under the guise of safe sex. It actively lobbies Congress to defund abstinence programs. It retained the ACLU to fight against abstinence programs. Its Sex Education Resource Center provides lesson plans for “comprehensive” sex education, national standards, and policy and advocacy tools. It publishes its own sex ed curricula.

FoSE craftily partnered with other organizations that are in a position to fast-track its national standards—and from there the sex education its members and advisors publish—into the schools.

The national standards were reviewed by officials from organizations that push for school-based clinics, like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Division of Adolescent and School Health; the National Assembly on School-Based Health Care; and Planned Parenthood. The standards push sexual orientation issues from the earliest ages, and the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) is listed among the national resources, along with Planned Parenthood’s “independent” research arm, the Guttmacher Institute.

By the end of second grade, the national standards being pushed by Planned Parenthood and its cohorts through a group called FoSE (The Future of Sex Education) say that 7-year-olds should use “proper” names for male and female body parts, explain that all living things reproduce, and identify different kinds of family structures. Rather than teaching them that their private parts are not to be touched other than for cleaning, it teaches they have the right to tell others not to touch their body if they do not want to be touched.

By the end of 5th grade, 11-year-old students must “define sexual orientation as the romantic attraction of an individual to someone of the same gender or a different gender,” and “describe the process of human reproduction.”

By the end of 8th grade, the 14-year-old students must be able to “differentiate between gender identity, gender expression and sexual orientation and explain the range of gender roles.” They must define sexual intercourse and its relation to human reproduction. The standards define sexual intercourse as “when a penis is inserted into a vagina, mouth or anus.” That is certainly not the definition most parents think of when they define sexual intercourse, nor the definition parents want their 14-year-olds to parrot. They must also define “emergency contraception” and its use, and “describe a range of ways people express affection within various types of relationships.”

By the end of 12th grade, students must be able to “describe the human sexual response cycle, including the role hormones play.” They must “differentiate between biological sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity and expression.”

The National Sexuality Education Standards are a one-way gate constructed by Planned Parenthood and friends to ensure that only Kinsey-inspired, Planned Parenthood-style “comprehensive” sex education may enter into the public schools. Not only that, but the evidence is clear that they seek to ensure that children be schooled in brazen immorality to the exclusion of religious or parental influence.

Do you know what your children are learning in school? It is time for parents and other concerned citizens to contact the local school district and insist on receiving all the information that is being taught to their children in the realm of human sexuality and by whom it is being taught.

There is strength in numbers, and our publication Parent Power!! will teach you how to organize resistance to Planned Parenthood and its cohorts and get them out of your schools. Our website devotes an entire section to getting and keeping Planned Parenthood out of public schools. Our just-released video, “Hooking Kids on Sex II,” can be a powerful tool in your hands to stop Planned Parenthood’s encroachment into the public schools. Warning: It is a very graphic presentation of Planned Parenthood materials and community outreach, and is not suitable for children. You can view it at http://all.org/ppsexed. Then forward it to your local school officials and elected representatives.

Our experts are available to help. To book one of our speakers, contact [email protected] today!

On May 14, 2010, we launched our campaign to shut down Planned Parenthood by Bringing Jesus to PP through Mary. Since 2006, 123 Planned Parenthood facilities have closed across the United States. Our soon-to-be released annual survey of Planned Parenthood facilities will show that 90 of the 123 closed within the past two years, coinciding with the inception of our Mary campaign. Please pray a rosary this week at Planned Parenthood in thanksgiving for such a great grace.

Planned Parenthood, for its part, has said that it has had two of the most difficult years in its history. Pro-life activism has increased dramatically, the abortion giant has faced one battle after another from pro-life forces, and the evil PP empire is beginning to crumble at many levels.

We attribute Planned Parenthood’s problems over the last two years and the success pro-life forces have had in defunding it to the fact that we have consecrated this battle to Mary and have brought Mary very openly into the fight. As ALL vice president, Jim Sedlak, said recently, “It is having Mary in the fight that is really making a difference, turning things around.”

Bishop John W. Yanta set the precedent for consecrating the battle to Mary, and it resulted in the closure of 18 out of 19 Planned Parenthood facilities in the Texas Panhandle over a 12-year period.

Expect to see us increase our emphasis on Bringing Jesus to Planned Parenthood through Mary, as we continue to encourage our 120 Associate groups, those involved in 40 Days for Life vigils, and other pro-life groups throughout the nation to put Mary front and center in the battle to end Planned Parenthood’s deadly influence and presence on our society.

We will be stepping up grassroots activity and approaching parishes near all 749 Planned Parenthood facilities to encourage their participation in our campaign. Please encourage your pastor to support you in your efforts to Bring Jesus to Planned Parenthood through Mary, and let us know by replying to this e-mail newsletter if you are Bringing Jesus to Planned Parenthood at a local Planned Parenthood facility and where that facility is located.

It is time for the Church to take its place outside these death camps and pray against the evil that opposes life and opposes our Catholic faith—to the point of trying to force us to renounce our faith and pay for birth control and sterilizations, via its place of honor at the table of the Obama administration.

Our Lady can and will stop Planned Parenthood’s advance and bring victory to the Church. Please act today to step up your efforts to Bring Jesus to Planned Parenthood through Mary, honoring and entrusting her to lead the battle by placing her front and center in all that you do.

Texas has stood its ground against the Obama administration and has cut off approximately $38 million dollars in funding to Planned Parenthood through the Medicaid Women’s Health Program. Texas intended to continue to run the program, but route the federal and state funding to organizations that do not commit abortion.

In its latest assault on women’s health, the Obama administration denied Texas’ request and said it would not fund the program if Planned Parenthood is denied funding. Governor Rick Perry said the administration’s move was politically motivated and that Obama was holding women’s healthcare hostage because of Texas’ pro-life policies.

The governor’s office sent a letter on January 4 to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius telling her that “the federal government should not be in the business of protecting abortion providers at the expense of the health of Texas women.”

Planned Parenthood of West Texas announced that it will be closing its Odessa abortion facility on March 9 because of the funding loss, even though it was purported to be the busiest of the four Planned Parenthood facilities in the West Texas area. Planned Parenthood of West Texas CEO Karen Pieper said because of the loss of federal funding it could not afford to keep the facility open.

We look for the closure of many more Texas Planned Parenthood facilities in the wake of the defunding.

The Dallas Catholic Pro-Life Committee head, Karen Garnett, was interviewed on three Dallas television stations about the defunding. She applauded the legislature for pulling the funding from Planned Parenthood, and rightfully called PP the “mother of the abortion industry,” saying that “taxpayer dollars do not need to be going to any organization that is in the business of killing children.” You can view the interview here.

Congratulations to Governor Rick Perry and all the Texas pro-life advocates who have stood tall in opposition to funding Planned Parenthood.
