Citizen's Petition to Defund Planned Parenthood

We, the people of the United States, are calling upon our local, state, and federal elected officials to stop our tax dollars from going to Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood is an organization that, according to their own 2007 financial report, boasts about being a one billion dollar organization. Yet, this same group has clinics facing:

107 criminal charges, which includes 23 felony charges of late-term abortions and falsifying documents, at the Comprehensive Health of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid Missouri;

Allegations of targeting minority communities across the country by willfully and in some cases, excitedly, taking donations earmarked towards aborting black babies;

Defrauding the State of California of $180 million in taxpayer funds;

Lawsuits alleging they shelter child rapists by not reporting underage rape and abuse;

Allegations of advising teenagers to experiment with pornography and sex without telling parents through their website for teens at www.teenwire.com (Caution: explicit content)

They received over $350 million from taxpayers last year. Any other government contractor, business or industry facing any one of the above allegations would have been subjected to Congressional oversight hearings and investigations.

We respectfully demand that our representatives stop our tax dollars from supporting this industry immediately. Every individual and corporation should be held to the same standard of law. Our mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, and future children deserve better.

By signing the petition below, you are adding your voice to millions of others in condeming our government's practice of funding Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry with YOUR tax dollars!

America is finally seeing who Planned Parenthood really is. It is time that they are held to the same standard of law and practices as everyone else. Thanks to the courage of those who have stood up to expose their criminal acts (Phill Kline of Kansas) and their racist tendencies (UCLA students) we understand better that this organization does not deserve one dime of our tax dollars. The damage they have done to families and society through their deception must stop being enabled by our tax dollars!
