Missouri Inspection Bill Has Planned Parenthood Claiming Hospitalized Women, Safety Deficiencies Not a "Problem"
January 20, 2014
Jefferson City, MO - A new bill proposed by Missouri lawmakers last
week has a representative of the St. Louis Planned Parenthood, the last
abortion clinic in that state, claiming that 23 hospitalized abortion
patients and 44 pages of safety deficiencies are not a "problem."
The
bill, HB 1478, sponsored by Missouri Right to Life, would require a
minimum of four inspections of abortion clinics per year. If
deficiencies are found, the new law would mandate the closing of the
offending abortion clinic until it can prove it is in compliance. The
legislation enjoys wide support with over 100 sponsors and co-sponsors,
including the Speaker of the House and the Majority Leader.
Planned Parenthood is attempting to oppose the bill by distorting the horrific record of its St. Louis abortion facility.
