Just two days after pro-life lawmakers in the House of Representative introduced a bill that would immediately defund Planned Parenthood, pro-life members of the U.S. Senate have followed suit with their own legislation.
In the wake of two shocking videos showing top Planned Parenthood doctors arranging the sale of body parts from aborted babies, more than 80 members of the House of Representatives have introduced a bill that would immediately defund Planned Parenthood. Representative Diane Black (R-TN) and 80 original cosponsors introduced H.R. 3134, the Defund Planned Parenthood Act of 2015, which would immediately halt all sources of Federal funding to Planned Parenthood and its affiliates for a one year period.
