ADF on Senate's failure to defund Planned Parenthood: Effort has only just begun

Monday, Aug 3, 2015
The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Casey Mattox regarding the U.S. Senate’s failure Monday to defund Planned Parenthood:

“The American people should not be forced to fund a billion-dollar corporation that was caught on camera negotiating the sale of baby body parts. Our tax dollars should fund local public health clinics instead of bailing out Planned Parenthood. It’s time to defund Planned Parenthood, and the Senate should have done that today; however, the effort to protect Americans’ hard-earned taxpayer dollars has only just begun. Americans should continue to demand an end to corporate welfare for Planned Parenthood until it becomes a reality.”
