The U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce has been charged with cutting a minimum of 800 billion dollars from their budget.

I have the perfect place for them to start.

The leading cause of death globally for the last five consecutive years, and the third leading cause of death in the United States last year, is abortion in a Planned Parenthood clinic.

Planned Parenthood is the leader in this mass extinction. And WE are being forced to pay for this carnage.

More than 40% of Planned Parenthood’s annual revenue is paid by the U.S. taxpayer, primarily through Medicaid funding. And that funding just so happens to be governed by the aforementioned Energy and Commerce Committee.

Tell Congress: Stop killing babies with my money!

If Congress is serious about cutting 800 billion dollars, there’s no better place to start than by defunding Planned Parenthood. Last week, the first committee for the budget passed out a bill that includes defunding Planned Parenthood and Big Abortion.

The first hurdle was cleared, but we have many more before victory. Now the fight just got more intense. Congree MUST hear from you NOW!

Abortion is 97.1% of Planned Parenthood’s business according to their own annual report.

The abortion giant kills an average of 1,102 babies a day using our money. That’s 1 child murdered every 78 seconds ... and WE are being forced to pay for it!

Planned Parenthood’s 2023-2024 annual report brags that the abortion giant killed a staggering 402,230 children that year alone, raking in more than 792 million dollars in taxpayer funds.

Only cancer (613,352 deaths) and heart disease (680,981 deaths) killed more people in 2023 than Planned Parenthood.

Congress can end this butchery now by refusing to pay the abortion giant with U.S. taxpayer dollars.

STOP paying for murder!

Meanwhile, several pro-life states have taken it into their hands to stop giving state taxpayer dollars to Planned Parenthood. Now Planned Parenthood is SUING to force those states to continue funding the abortion giant’s butchery.

Our client Sandra Merritt’s undercover videos showed Planned Parenthood executives bragging about breaking the law and butchering living, breathing, fully born babies in order to sell those baby organs to the highest bidders.

The lawless activity revealed in Sandra’s videos caused the state of South Carolina to remove Planned Parenthood as a qualified Medicaid provider. The state made the wise decision to stop giving taxpayer dollars to an organization with a history of engaging in such barbaric activity.

But Planned Parenthood is now suing South Carolina to force this pro-life state to keep paying for Planned Parenthood’s butchery!

This spring, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic. Liberty Counsel briefed the High Court on this case, and we prayerfully await the Court’s ruling sometime before the end of June.

Our powerful brief reminded the Court of all the illicit and unlawful activities Sandra Merritt’s videos uncovered ... and why organizations which have engaged in such lawlessness should NEVER receive a dime of taxpayer money.

Liberty Counsel is only able to defend whistleblowers like Sandra and brief the U.S. Supreme Court on massive cases like this because of your direct financial support.

In 36 years, Liberty Counsel has won 37 of the cases we have argued or briefed before the U.S. Supreme Court. And we have won hundreds more cases in the federal Courts of Appeals and state Supreme Courts.

But we cannot do this important work without YOU. Thankfully, a generous supporter has established a Challenge Grant to support our legal work. Please, make your best donation today and let the Challenge Grant DOUBLE the impact of your gift.

Finally, please keep praying for the Justices deciding the Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic case, as well as the members of Congress who will decide if our federal tax dollars will continue funding the third largest cause of death in America.
