Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- A provision that would have given financial benefits to the nation's largest abortion business was stripped at the last minute from the War Supplemental Bill. Pro-life groups had complained the measure to help fund the troops should never have contained a section to fund Planned Parenthood.
The bill is supposed to provide funding for troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Torn over a non-germane provision, the House was set to debate the Senate's version of the bill, which gives breaks to the abortion business and other similar groups.
LinkCan't believe I missed this. It's a couple days old, but Planned Parenthood is finally getting what it deserves. Now, if only they were stripped completely of ALL federal funding.
