“Planned
Parenthood Federation of America is a rapidly shrinking organization,” according
to a pro-life group.
In
its annual study of Planned Parenthood (PP) facilities, American Life League
(ALL) has found the abortion giant closed 32 locations over the course of 2017.
According to the study, only 597 PP
facilities remain open across the country. In perspective, 1995 saw the highest number of
PP facilities with 938.
ALL’s
STOPP (STOP Planned Parenthood) campaign was launched in 1985 to halt the
spread of PP’s abortion business. In
1993, PP announced an initiative to open 2,000 facilities by the year 2000. However, thanks to ALL and the pro-life
movement’s work, the abortionist never eclipsed 1,000; and 2017’s 597
represents the lowest number of PP facilities since the campaign began.
ALL’s Executive
Director, Jim Sedlak, writes:
“The
dwindling facilities and customer numbers have also had an effect on Planned
Parenthood’s single most profitable activity—abortions. Despite its ever-increasing emphasis on
abortion, it has struggled to even maintain its abortion business numbers. Over the last eight years, PP has averaged
328,302 abortions a year—with very little year-to-year fluctuation. Now 328,000 is a lot of dead innocent human
beings (even one is too many), but, as the report shows, it is estimated that
at least 50,000 babies will be saved in 2018 because these PP centers are no
longer around.”
Eliminating
corporate support for PP’s abortion business is another way to force the
closure of PP facilities. Five major
corporations (AT&T, Coca-Cola, Ford, Macy’s, and Xerox) have all publicly
stated they no longer support PP. Who
will be the next?
