UNITED WAY SUPPORTS PP Despite an expose’ in recent years that the Planned Parenthood business sells the body parts of aborted babies, and despite the fact that PP is the nation’s biggest abortion company, a new report indicates that United Way affiliates fund it with millions of donations. Late in August, 2ndVote, the conservative watchdog for corporate activism, released its annual findings on United Way’s financial support for PP. The report tracks 1200 United Way affiliates. Analysis of the most recent IRS Form 990 filings and other documentation found 62 UW affiliates sent $2,756,799.00 to PP abortion organizations in tax year 2016. 2nd Vote Executive Director Robert Kuykendall said, “Our research…gives conservatives and pro-life activists a resource to make sure their charitable donations won’t be used to support PP’s abortion business. If PP says an abortion can cost up to $950.00, that means UW dollars…paid for…at least 2901 PP abortions over Thank you to all who came to the Rally for the course of a single year.
