Pro-life group: Study shows Planned Parenthood cut services, pocketed more money

While tax dollars for Planned Parenthood have soared, figures also show it is missing its mission.

American Life League has reported that healthcare services delivered by Planned Parenthood hit their lowest levels since 2006 while taxpayer funding jumped 78 percent.

“Planned Parenthood claims that they’re a healthcare organization and yet over the last few years every one of their health care numbers has gone down while their government money has gone up,” Jim Sedlak, American Life League vice president, tells OneNewsNow.

Planned Parenthood also promotes and provides sex education for children to prevent teenage pregnancies, then sells abortions when they become pregnant.

Sedlak reports that Planned Parenthood in the Texas Panhandle went from 19 clinics to zero clinics from 1997 to 2008. “And what we found was that as Planned Parenthood closed down the clinics, teen pregnancies went down, not up,” he recalls.

And he found that over 15 years Planned Parenthood “inflated the number of contraceptive clients that they say they had by at least 11 percent.”

Many government programs pay Planned Parenthood based on the number of contraceptive clients they have, and as they over-report their contraceptive clients, they get more money from the government.
