An October 27 press release by the anti-choice Center For Medical Progress (CMP) claimed that their eleventh undercover video attacking Planned Parenthood reveals a doctor from Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas discussing an illegal abortion technique that could obtain fetal brain samples while she also “affirms” a fee for fetal tissue specimens.

U.S. Congressional Republicans on Tuesday challenged Planned Parenthood’s eligibility for federal funds, while the health organization’s president said defunding it would restrict women’s access to care and disproportionately hurt low-income patients. “Only by doing our all at this crucial juncture can Life Legal keep the truth about Planned Parenthood available to the public”.
