“I thank Representative Duffy for his leadership on this matter. Mr. Speaker, tonight I join my colleagues in speaking out against the barbaric and heinous actions we all witnessed in an undercover video in which Planned Parenthood was caught selling the body parts of aborted children. In 2013, Planned Parenthood performed 327,653 abortions and received over a half billion dollars--$500 million--in taxpayer funding. Ironically, it was in 2013 that President Obama became the only sitting President to ever address this organization. May I remind you that it was at this address that the President made the decision to invoke God's blessings on these hideous activities. The mask is now coming off an organization that barters the very parts of a baby in a manner that most Americans find appalling. So many of us here are parents. We have watched in awe at the ultrasound images of our children. We have seen their little hearts beat and have marveled at God's creation in how fearfully and wonderfully they are made. How can we stand idly and not speak out for these lives, the very least of these? That is why I have taken immediate action by joining in a letter with several of my colleagues, speaking out against Planned Parenthood's evil and depraved actions, and fully support a congressional investigation into this organization. I am proud to be an original cosponsor of Congresswoman Black's bill, the Title X Abortion Provider Act.…”
