A NY Pro-Life Group questions Planned Parenthood’s financial publicity

Family Life’s weekly “Faith Under Fire” feature

When Planned Parenthood announced it would be, at least temporarily, curtailing some abortion procedures at several New York clinics, an Empire State pro-life organization raised questions about Planned Parenthood’s publicity last month.

Feminists Choosing Life of New York released statements that asked how the largest provider of abortions in New York State and in the nation can be on financial hard times. Spokesperson Sarah Prentice told Family Life News that two significant dynamics are happening. First, well over have of the pregnancies that are ended through abortions are now happening with a cocktail of two pills, including mifepristone which ends the life of the fetus. Also, even as revenue from in-clinic procedures are less frequent, Planned Parenthood still gets hundreds of millions in taxpayer subsidies.

In this podcast, Prentice quotes the New York governor’s annual budget, showing how much tax money goes to funding abortions, encouraging people from other states to come to New York in so-called “abortion tourism”, and to pay for extensive lobbying on Planned Parenthood’s behalf.

Sarah Prentice is policy analyst and deputy outreach manager for FCLNY, which describes itself as a statewide human rights coalition, active on a range of issues. More information is available on their Instagram, website, and video.

Family Life News has invited Planned Parenthood of New York to have a parallel interview, to hear their perspective their public announcement and the related issues raised in this interview. As of the time of this post, we have not heard a response.

Prolife Pregnancy Centers vs the New York Attorney General – 8/15/24

Prolife Pregnancy Centers vs the New York Attorney General – 8/15/24

…. A MAJOR HEARING ABOUT “ABORTION PILL REVERSAL” …. IN BUFFALO THIS THURSDAY…..

 

A number of pro-life organizations are suing New York’s Attorney General. They argue that threats of legal actions by Letitia James and her office will seek to unconstitutionally silence their advice to clients who start on Mifepristone to chemically end a pregnancy, but then have second thoughts. The state sent letters to the pregnancy care center, threatening prosecution if they provide information about abortion-drug reversal processes to people who visit their clinics.

The Alliance Defending Freedom law group represents those centers and sought an injunction against the Attorney General. That hearing was today (August 15, 2024). Prior to this court hearing, Family Life news producer Greg Gillispie got a preview from ADF attorney Gabriella McIntyre.

 

The ADF statement about the case is here from their website ADFLegal.org.

 

Family Life News also reached out to the Attorney General’s media team, offering to interview James or her spokesperson.

This podcast post will be updated when we have their response.
