URGENT! House vote TODAY on abortion funding

This message is from David Bereit, National Director 40 Days for Life. The vote has not taken place yet, so please take a few moments to respond to this important message.

Congress will vote THIS AFTERNOON on measures that
would prevent government funding for the nation's
largest abortion chain -- Planned Parenthood, an
organization that raked in over $360,000,000 in
taxpayer dollars last year.

It's absolutely vital that you call your Member of
Congress RIGHT NOW and tell them how you feel about
removing ALL taxpayer funding from Planned Parenthood
and other abortion providers!

Call the US Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and
ask to be connected to your Representative's office.

If you don't know who that is, go here to find the
name by submitting your zip code:

https://writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml

In some cases you'll need to know your 9-digit zip.
Find that here:

As you know, Planned Parenthood has been in the news
lately for its institution-wide scandal of aiding and
abetting human trafficking of girls as young as 14.

Additionally the abortion chain has now ordered ALL
of its affiliates to start performing abortions --
or leave the Planned Parenthood umbrella.

On Monday, you and I -- and thousands of other people
of faith and conscience -- held prayer vigils outside
more than 200 Planned Parenthood offices to raise
awareness about how this organization is dangerous
for women and girls.

See photos, videos, news stories and more from vigils
around the country at:

http://www.ExposePlannedParenthood.com/vigil

At the same time we were praying on Monday, Planned
Parenthood's national president, Cecile Richards,
sent a massive e-mail blast to abortion advocates
across the nation with the subject line:

"The worst attack -- ever"

The message screamed: "URGENT! They want to shut down
every Planned Parenthood" and called our efforts the
most "dangerous assault" on their abortion business
in its entire history.

Richards begged abortion proponents to immediately
call Congress and demand a "NO" vote on any measure
to strip the abortion chain's taxpayer funding.

And word is that the abortion crowd is ringing phones
off the hook on Capitol Hill.

It is VITAL that you let Congress know how you feel
about de-funding Planned Parenthood!!

This could be a pivotal moment in our efforts to end
abortion in America!

For Life,

David Bereit
National Director
40 Days for Life

P.S.- Please forward this important message to your
friends and ask them to call as well - time is short!

Take Action: Vigil for Victims

This message is from David Bereit, National Director of the 40 Days for Life Campaign. Please forward this email to your friends, family, and members of your church and invite them to participate in a Vigil for Victims on Monday, February 14th.

*************************************************************

Dear Friends,

This is our moment to make a PROFOUND difference!

Are you sick and tired of Planned Parenthood getting $363 MILLION of taxpayer funding a year -- while aiding and abetting illegal underage sex trafficking?
Then let's take a public stand Monday to tell Congress: "NO MORE TAX $ for Planned Parenthood!"

This Monday, February 14, 40 Days for Life is helping to coordinate "Vigils for Victims" that will be held outside Planned Parenthood offices coast-to-coast from Noon to 1 PM in each U.S. Time Zone ...
... and YOU can make an impact in one hour!

Find out how at:
http://www.ExposePlannedParenthood.com/vigil

Here's what going on ...

For the last two weeks, the national media has been abuzz with the shocking story of the undercover sting operation that caught abortion giant Planned Parenthood red-handed in the despicable act of aiding and abetting sex trafficking and prostitution of girls as young as 14.

Numerous undercover videos have now been released, documenting Planned Parenthood workers at multiple locations across several states assuring an undercover investigator posing as a pimp that the organization would secretly provide abortions and other services to underage victims of human trafficking, facilitating their exploitation.

Federal law is clear: "Sex trafficking of minors is a federal crime and punishable by imprisonment for 10 years to life." (18 U.S. Code 1591) Additionally, "any person who aids abets, or counsels a federal crime to be committed may be punished as if they had committed the crime themselves." (18 U.S. Code 2)

The institution-wide scandal has now reached the highest levels at Planned Parenthood, with top executives making the appalling claim that their workers who were caught on video facilitating underage sex slavery "responded professionally."
After receiving a record $363 MILLION in taxpayer funds last year, Planned
Parenthood's president Cecile Richards then had the audacity to send out an urgent appeal for abortion advocates to contact Congress -- so the organization can rake in even MORE of your hard-earned tax dollars!

And if that wasn't enough, now Planned Parenthood is attempting to hijack Valentine's Day as a marketing gimmick to expand its harmful agenda, shove condoms into the hands of young children, and lure even more vulnerable victims into its facilities.

*** ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! ***

It is vital for us to act swiftly and take a public stand against Planned Parenthood's harmful agenda -- raising awareness in the communities where we live, and calling upon Congress to IMMEDIATELY strip the abortion chain of all tax funding.
This Monday, February 14, you can help make that happen by holding a one-hour "Vigil for Victims" during the Noon hour in the public right-of-way outside the Planned Parenthood office nearest to you.

This requires rapid action on all our parts, but will show Planned Parenthood -- and the media -- the power of pro-life America to bring about vital change!
No experience is required! Find out exactly what to do by visiting:
http://www.ExposePlannedParenthood.com/vigil

Together, we really can make a difference! Let's act quickly to make sure Planned Parenthood is held fully accountable for its willingness to aid and abet underage sex trafficking, and let's tell Congress that the time has come to DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD!

For Life,
David Bereit
National Director
40 Days for Life

P.S.- I will personally be standing vigil outside the Planned Parenthood at 1108 16th Street NW, in Washington, DC from noon to 1 PM, and Shawn Carney will be outside the Planned Parenthood at 201 N. Hamilton Street in Richmond, VA. If you're nearby, come join us -- or do the same where you live!

Flood Congress with phone calls for National Pro-Life Lobby Day to Defund Planned Parenthood.

Hi all,

Please take a few moments to read this email from Marjorie Dannenfelser, President, Susan B. Anthony List, and call your Representatives TODAY.

Dear George,

Today is the day!

I need you to help me flood Congress with phone calls for National Pro-Life Lobby Day to Defund Planned Parenthood.

Please take two minutes right now to call your Representative and ask them to support the Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act to stop the flow of our tax dollars to Planned Parenthood. This link will take you to the site where you can easily find your Representative's number: http://www.exposeplannedparenthood.com/call-congress

Calling Tip: Most Congressional offices are open from 9 AM to 6 PM Eastern. Please call during this time frame. If you can’t, just leave a voicemail.

George, Planned Parenthood is running scared after pro-life activist Lila Rose and her group Live Action released six videos in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York showing Planned Parenthood employees aiding and abetting the sexual exploitation of girls as young as just 13 years old.

Now is the time to defund Planned Parenthood. From 2008 to 2009 alone, they received $363 million tax dollars – hard-earned money straight from our pockets to theirs. During that same time period, they destroyed the lives of 324,008 babies.

Enough is Enough.

Please help flood Congress with calls today by calling your Representative right now. Ask him or her to support Rep. Mike Pence’s Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act to defund Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers of Title X funding.
This link will take you to the site where you can easily find your Representative's number: http://www.exposeplannedparenthood.com/call-congress

While you and members of the SBA List team from across the country – and other members of the Exposed Planned Parenthood coalition – are calling Congressional offices, your SBA List is co-hosting a press conference this morning with pro-life Congressional leaders to amplify the call to defund Planned Parenthood of our tax dollars. Many of the pro-life leaders you helped us elect this past November will be speaking out.

And earlier this week, Congressional hearings were held on the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act” and the “Protect Life Act” – key pieces of legislation we’re pushing along with the Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act to ensure that not one dime of our tax dollars goes toward the destruction of human life.

Abortion is the center issue this week in Washington, George, and we must capitalize on this opportunity.

Don’t wait another minute to call your Member of Congress. Click here to use the Expose Planned Parenthood Action Center to find your Representative’s phone number and use our helpful talking points to communicate your pro-life message.

This link will take you to the site where you can easily find your Representative's number: http://www.exposeplannedparenthood.com/call-congress

Finally, George, please help spread the word about National Pro-Life Lobby Day to Defund Planned Parenthood. Forward this e-mail and help promote www.ExposePlannedParenthood.com to at least 5 or 10 friends, family, neighbors, or people who attend your Church.

This is the best opportunity we’ve ever had to defund Planned Parenthood, George. Answer the call by calling your Representative today!

For Life,
Marjorie Dannenfelser
President, Susan B. Anthony List
www.sba-list.org

P.S. While it’s true that Planned Parenthood is vulnerable right now, they also have very deep pockets – and very powerful friends. The pro-abortion MoveOn.org, has already launched a massive grassroots campaign to defend Planned Parenthood and rally pro-abortion activists.

In fact, MoveOn.org is mobilizing their 5.2 MILLION members this week to ensure taxpayer dollars keep flowing to Planned Parenthood. That’s why I need you to call right now, George. Don’t wait another minute to call your Member of Congress. Click here to use the Action Center to find your Representative’s phone number and use our helpful talking points to communicate your pro-life message.

Expose Planned Parenthood - Action Alert

This information is from the Susan B. Anthony List. Please take a few minutes to read this important post and follow the link to call your Member of Congress and ask him or her to support H.R. 217 the Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act that ensures abortion providers do not received federal funds under the Title X federal family planning assistance program.

From the SBA List:

The vast majority of Americans agree that they do not want their tax dollars funding abortion, yet the abortion industry receives hundreds of millions of government funds every year.

Planned Parenthood, one of the -- organizations that receives millions in federal funds every year, has a long history of exploiting women. These exploitations were most recently revealed in videos showing clinic workers aiding and abetting sex trafficking of minors.

We must make sure that Planned Parenthood no longer receives our hard earned tax dollars.

Call your Member of Congress and ask him or her to support H.R. 217 the Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act that ensures abortion providers do not received federal funds under the Title X federal family planning assistance program.

Even if your Representative is already a co-sponsor, it is still important to call and ask them to push for a vote on the House floor.
