- Due to what some are speculating was internal pressure from a highly placed former politician within the organization, the Susan G. Komen Foundation will no longer give to Planned Parenthood. Funds from the Foundation had previously paid for screenings and mammograms for low-income women. At least one donor has already stepped forward with a large donation to cover some of the funds, but many women who previously received screenings will no longer be covered.
- The State of Virginia is seeking to cut off funding to aid economically disadvantaged women in obtaining abortions in the case of severe fetal abnormalities.
- Alabama State Senator seeks to make anti-abortion bills the focus of his term - not the economy, not education, but anti-abortion bills – starting with making sure Alabama insurance plans cannot cover the procedure.
- In news worth smiling about, an awesome Virginia State Representative fought to have restrictions on the distribution of Viagra - including a mandatory rectal exam – added to a bill forcing women who sought an abortion to undergo a mandatory ultrasound. Forget Personhood, this is the bill we want to see brought to all 50 states!
