Planned Parenthood Cheers as Abortions Are Ruled to Resume in Missouri Facilities
A judge in Jackson County, Missouri, blocked a previous order that still required abortion facilities to abide by certain licensing standards following Missouri’s November 2024 enshrinement of abortion into its state constitution. This requirement, which temporarily halted surgical abortions from taking place in Missouri’s abortion facilities, compelled Planned Parenthood to file a lawsuit against the state of Missouri.
However, hours after Judge Jerri Zhang blocked this licensing requirement last Friday, Emily Wales, CEO of Planned Parenthood Great Plains, announced that PPGP’s facilities would begin abortions immediately.
So what did these license requirements entail that Planned Parenthood and other Missouri abortionists were enraged by?
Some of these requirements included:
- Confirmation of the preborn baby’s gestational age via ultrasound
- Informing the patient in person of abortion and its risks 72 hours before the scheduled abortion
- Keeping a record of the patient’s previous medical history
- Developing, implementing, and enforcing “a written protocol for managing medical emergencies including the transfer of any patient requiring further emergency care to a hospital within a reasonable distance from the abortion facility”
- Making sure that hallway corridors for new abortion facilities are “at least” six feet wide
Unsurprisingly, Planned Parenthood and pro-abortion media have labeled these absolute bare-minimum requirements as discriminatory toward abortion facilities. Planned Parenthood’s press release called this a “TRAP law” (Targeted Regulation of Abortion Provider), while the CEO of Planned Parenthood of Great Rivers said, “The state’s abortion facility licensing requirements were not about patient safety, but rather another politically motivated barrier to prevent patients seeking abortion from getting the care they need.”
However, Planned Parenthood’s anger about having to follow basic licensing requirements is another example of the organization’s fears of losing customers who decide to keep their babies, which ultimately means losing lots of funding for the blood-money nonprofit.
Many articles showcase the celebratory spirits of Planned Parenthood and its fellow abortion advocates due to the ruling, but there is absolutely nothing worth celebrating here, as more innocent lives face death by murder.
While the ruling is expected to be appealed, STOPP encourages and calls on Missouri’s state leaders to have the courage to fight for protection of mothers and of the preborn child at all stages.
Call to Action: Join Us in Asking President Trump to Take Action against the Abortion Pill
Last week, American Life League and STOPP penned an open letter to President Trump asking him to act against groups that are illegally sending abortion pills into states with pro-life restrictions.
Together with Planned Parenthood, these groups work to circumvent laws put in place that would prohibit the distribution of the deadly abortion pill regimen.
Recently, the president signed an executive order classifying drug cartels as terrorist organizations. As these abortion providers are working as drug cartels, we asked the president to include them in his list.
Here are the facts:
- Networks of abortion providers and volunteers are working as drug dealers via the Internet and US postal system and are illegally sending these pills to customers in states with pro-life laws.
- These providers coach women about how to hide their information, lie to family members, and lie to doctors should they end up in the ER.
- The United States Postal Service, the FDA, and other US government agencies have neglected to investigate these individual networks of volunteers that provide abortion pills illegally and consistently through the mailing system.
We are asking our STOPP partners to join us in waving this red flag.
Download our full letter here. Please add your own name to the letter and send it to the president. The more awareness we can raise, the better chance we have of saving women and babies who fall victim to these cartels.
