The Tragic Love Story
Between Governor Wolf
and Planned Parenthood
|
|
By Matthew Wagner, Education Director
Romeo and Juliet…Lancelot and Guinevere…Pocahontas and John Smith…tragic love stories abound throughout our culture. However, none of those love stories is nearly as tragic, or has had the devastating impact, as the love story between pro-abortion Governor Wolf and Planned Parenthood.
The “relationship” between Governor Wolf and Planned Parenthood goes back to his days as a private citizen when he acted as a volunteer “escort” at a Planned Parenthood in York. As an escort, Wolf would go out to the vehicles of mothers as they arrived at Planned Parenthood and prevent them from hearing the loving and supportive statements of pro-lifers outside the abortion center. It blossomed into Planned Parenthood spending thousands of dollars supporting Governor Wolf’s election in 2014. It is no wonder then that Governor Wolf repeats Planned Parenthood’s lies every chance he gets and that just last week, he visited and praised the Elizabeth Blackwell abortion center in Philadelphia, despite it failing over 50% of its safety inspections.
The love story between Governor Wolf and Planned Parenthood is tragic for the over 17,000 Pennsylvania babies who die at a Planned Parenthood abortion center every year. It is time for Governor Wolf to end his partnership with Planned Parenthood and start helping people remember there is always a reason to choose life.

Call Your U.S. Senator to Stop Taxpayer Funding of Abortion

The U.S. Senate is expected to vote this week on a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare. The Graham-Cassidy bill would prevent taxpayer funding of abortion and would defund Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion operation.
Action Item: Please call U.S. Senators Bob Casey and Pat Toomey and urge them to support the Graham-Cassidy bill. You can reach Senator Casey at 202-224-6324. You can contact Senator Toomey by calling 202-224-4254.
Thank you for making these critical, life-saving calls!
