Rep. Mulvaney Leads Letter to House Leadership in Defund Planned Parenthood Effort

July 29, 2015
Press Release

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Mick Mulvaney, along with 17 other Members, sent a letter to House Republican Leadership requesting that Planned Parenthood be defunded through every available measure in the wake of reports that the organization has been selling the tissue of aborted fetuses for profit.  

 

The recent reports that Planned Parenthood has sold the tissue of unborn babies for profit is deeply disturbing.  This is simply unacceptable.  I vehemently urge House Republican leadership to use every available tool to strip this organization of any and all taxpayer funds and take measures to prevent the group from receiving taxpayer dollars in the future.  Furthermore, we will not support any funding measure that provides taxpayer dollars for this organization.”
