Across the country, Americans are invited to mourn the loss of over 55 million babies killed (disproportionately over 16 million of which are black babies) by the Supremely wrong constitutional decision of legalized abortion, known as Roe v. Wade. We will gather to mourn the loss of life and the wounding of women by the violent act of "choice." | | Enough! Congress investigates defunding Planned Parenthood World Net Daily

Cliff Stearns, R-Fla., chair of the House Energy & Commerce Committee's Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, which has jurisdiction over the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services - which in turn oversees federal grants to Planned Parenthood - is demanding action. | |
