Funding a Death Every 80 Seconds

Jun 4, 2025

The intensity is increasing because the final budget vote is getting closer.

Certain budget cuts should be easy to make! Planned Parenthood alone receives nearly 800 million dollars annually from federal funds. Our team on Capitol Hill, however, is sensing uncertainty, even among Republicans!

While our team was praying on Capitol Hill to end this evil, we had people coming within 2 feet and screaming like demons.

Planned Parenthood kills “an average of 1,076 preborn babies every day, nearly 45 every hour, and one every 80 seconds.” (2022-23 stats). Abortion at Planned Parenthood clinics is the fourth-largest cause of death in America. More than 40% of Planned Parenthood’s income comes from taxpayers.

This is pure evil.

If you ever witnessed an abortion, as I have on the documentary film Assignment Life, you will not be able to remain silent. It is gut wrenching.

The House Committee on Energy and Commerce has been tasked with cutting between 800 billion and 1.2 trillion dollars from its budget. Direct funding or funding through Medicaid comes through this committee, which has 54 members!

It’s a no-brainer to cut out abortion funding! Planned Parenthood alone receives nearly 600 million dollars annually from federal funds. Our team on Capitol Hill, however, is sensing uncertainty, even among Republicans!

Every taxpayer in America is personally funding this evil. Tell Congress: Stop using my money to murder children! Defund the abortion industry permanently

Before you finish reading this email, Planned Parenthood will kill another child. And we as taxpayers make it possible!

The former board director for the Center for Medical Progress, Albin Rhomberg, testified in defense of Sandra Merritt.

This is what he told the court about Planned Parenthood:

There were these rumors that they were collecting the bodies for sale or for distribution in some way. In some cases, the people noticed that the [baby] parts went out before the mother went out. She would come—[some]times, come staggering out later, typically throwing up in the bushes and being helped out of the place, after the baby parts had already gone into the FedEx truck. 

After talking with the drivers and conducting online research, Rhomberg discovered groups like StemExpress and Advanced Bioscience Resources had been purchasing baby parts, and they were being resold to those conducting research on baldness. 

They were scalping the babies and taking their scalps and grafting them on to immune-suppressed mice, and then using various pharmaceuticals on these humanized mice to test the effect upon preventing or, I suppose you might say, treating baldness.

I don’t have words strong enough to condemn this evil. But — it gets worse. 

Rhomberg also testified that pro-life sidewalk counselors first discovered that Planned Parenthood was involved in the trafficking of baby body parts in the early 2000s.  

Rhomberg said that the staff at the abortion facility would arrive in the morning, then the abortionists would come. Mid-morning, a new group of people arrived carrying containers, sometimes with ice and other tools and equipment. A few hours later, a FedEx truck arrived at a regular time and departed with “special refrigerated gel-pack containers.” 

And when executives were approached and asked to sell these murdered children, they were giddy with excitement.

The House Committee on Energy and Commerce must cut 800 billion to 1.2 trillion dollars from its budget. A good start is to stop funding abortion. 

One abortionist was recorded while laughing and negotiating the illegal sale of organs from these children: “Come play with our tissue. See if it's cool enough for you.” This is sick. These are the remains of the children they murdered!

She is talking about the bodies of the dead children we murdered with our tax dollars, and then using our tax dollars again to enrich themselves more by selling their organs for “science.” 

This should not even be allowed, let alone funded by our tax dollars. 

Our staff are in many high-level meetings discussing strategy and helping to implement change that will last for generations. God has blessed us with open doors to discuss strategy and impact our nation’s future. Your support enables us to show up and win, but we are in a race against time to save these little lives.
