I read with interest and read the recent Times column, “In Florida, Planned Tourhood Doesn’t Back Down in Florida.” It’s author and interim CEO of Plannard Parent-Childhood in Southwest and Central Florida, Barbara Zudravecky reduces Florida abortion restrictions and amendment 4 ballot box failures, but plans custody promises that “health will fight for a world where health care is not determined by politics.” It is a powerful, rich statement from those who have spent their time and money politics. In fact, only Zdrevecky’s affiliates contributed more than $2 million out of the total $8 million that Planned Parenthood contributed to the four failed fix campaign.
These are days of hopelessness for planning parents as Congress deliberate whether the government should stop sending taxes to abortion providers. As pointed out in an article run the same day as the column, the abortion giant has closed its facilities, even if there are actual restrictions on abortion. And a recent New York Times research report documented unsuccessful abortions and poor care, patients treated like “conveyor belts,” and leaders who “repeated the fight for abortion rights to clinics.”
Planned Parenthood disguises the extreme agenda behind the astonishing admiration of vote-tested benign vote-tested praises, such as “freedom of reproductive”, and seeks your help in “pushing politicians out of our personal and private decisions.”
But sometimes, we get a glimpse of what organizations really want us. Like a social media post that denies even the most modest restrictions on abortion, it reveals that you support abortion for any reason at any time during pregnancy. The bottom line is that a planned parent-child relationship wants a totally unlimited abortion.
The Zdravecky organization sued Florida to try to legalize abortion, even after science said babies can feel the pain of the procedure. In fact, Planned Parenthood says it doesn’t want any pregnancy limits at all. This means abortion at any time during pregnancy. The group even testified against a bill that unanimously passed the Florida Legislature, which opposed the bill that required medical care for young children born during failed pregnancy. That is to be a radical planning parent when it comes to abortion.
But the organization is not just suing in Florida and abandoning restrictions on late abortion. All over the United States, planning parents and their allies use the passage of vaguely written “reproductive rights” amendments to enforce taxpayer funds for selective abortions. These are common sense laws, not “mixed or cruelty,” as Zdravecky’s column suggests.

Finally, her swipe in Florida Heartbeat Protection Act as a “nearly two-week abortion ban” is the same false feature as her organization and other pro-aboration militants tried to approve the approval 4 last year.
The truth is: Current Florida law allows abortion on reasons for pregnancy up to 6 weeks if a fetal heartbeat is detected, up to 15 weeks for pregnancy due to rape, incest or human trafficking, up to 24 weeks at the time of pregnancy, if the baby has a fatal fetal abnormality, or if the pregnancy during pregnancy needs to protect the mother’s health. A reasonable person will conclude that this is something other than a “nearly complete ban.”
In fact, a recent survey by Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy found that when Florida voters were asked about the abortion restrictions in the Florida Act above, 64% agreed that the law provides reasonable restrictions on abortion.
Unlike planned parent-child relationships, even most supporters agree that pregnancy has a point when it’s too late to allow an abortion. Planned Parenthood’s views include: It’s never too late for an abortion. The parents of a minor girl should not say whether she has an abortion. Taxpayers must fund elective abortions. And those who are not doctors should be able to have an abortion. These positions are not just outside the political mainstream. They are inhuman and wild.
Planned parent-child relationships should not be lionized in the media, subsidized by taxpayers, or exempted from their failures. And because that agenda should not be wrapped up in e-musical expressions, it is completely exposed, making sure that everyone knows the extreme policies they want to put into the law.
