Dear [Your Elected Official],

<p>Republican reconciliation bills in 2015 and 2017 included a provision to stop giving hard-earned American tax dollars to Big Abortion. In 2025 it is even more urgent to cut funding for this industry that endangers women and unborn children and spends tens of millions of dollars to promote woke policies and candidates. <br /><br />Planned Parenthood and groups like it were among those first identified for cost saving measures by Elon Musk who singled them out in the Wall Street Journal last November. President Trump has already rolled back funding for abortion groups overseas, but Congressional action is necessary to stop the biggest source of taxpayer cash for the domestic abortion industry – Medicaid. <br /><br />Planned Parenthood reports raking in a total of $699.3 million, or almost $2 million per day, from American taxpayers in 2023 alone. Meanwhile, Planned Parenthood’s most recent annual report boasted that they performed nearly 393,000 abortions – a 40% market share of the abortion industry in the U.S. <br /><br />Despite their claims to promote “women’s health,” Planned Parenthood consistently opposes basic health and safety standards for their facilities. The New York Times recently reported a litany of unsafe conditions and botched abortions at Planned Parenthood. For example, in one clinic last year “sewage from a backed-up toilet seeped into the abortion recovery room for two days,” which required employees to shove “exam table pads under the bathroom door to block the leak.” According to the reporting, “[p]atients vomited from the stench.” <br /><br />While leaving patients vomiting from rank conditions, Planned Parenthood prioritized pouring millions of dollars into woke lobbying and trying to defeat Republicans in races from the school board to the presidency. Planned Parenthood boasts that their advocacy and political organizations spent a massive $69.5 million during the 2024 election cycle. Their massive pro-abortion political arm, Planned Parenthood Action Fund, pushes all-trimester abortions and promotes fearmongering lies that put women and girls at needless risk. Their political arm has more lobbyists and spends more on federal lobbying than any other pro-abortion or pro-life group, spending more than half a million dollars in the first quarter of 2023 alone. Women and children deserve better care. <br /><br />In an era of reexamining federal funding, Congress should start by cutting funding for Big Abortion in the upcoming reconciliation bill. Please vote to DEFUND Planned Parenthood.</p>
