National pro-life group Students for Life of America (SFLA) and its partner organization Pro-Life Future are launching an initiative called #WomenBetrayed which urges citizens across the country to host rallies on Tuesday, July 28, to demand their states investigate, prosecute and defund Planned Parenthood.

In response to the video released this week about Planned Parenthood’s involvement in selling the organs and body parts of babies aborted in their clinics, SFLA – the largest pro-life organization of millennials in the nation – will be moving ahead against the abortion giant’s claim it is helping women by providing them with “healthcare.”

According to SFLA:

The abortion giant claims they care about women but they don’t – just look at their actions.  Planned Parenthood gets over $500 million a year in our taxpayer money and makes more than $100 million in profit, all while having abortion quotas. The organization has been caught covering up statutory rape, double-billing taxpayers, aiding and abetting sex traffickers, scheduling sex-selective abortions and accepting money to abort African American children.

Women have been betrayed by Planned Parenthood. Families have been deceived. And the smallest among us have been the ultimate victims of Planned Parenthood’s horrific business schemes. Quite frankly, we’ve had enough. It’s time to relieve Planned Parenthood of our taxpayer dollars. Join pro-lifers across the nation on Tuesday, July 28th to call on state and federal officials to investigate and defund Planned Parenthood, now!

Rallies are already being organized in the following U.S. cities:

  • Des Moines, IA
  • Chicago, IL
  • Washington, D.C.
  • Dallas, TX
  • Seattle, WA
  • Sacramento, CA
  • Lansing, MI
  • Denver, CO
  • St. Louis, MO
  • Lexington, KY
  • Fort Wayne, IN

SFLA is accepting applications for other cities as well.

In an email message to SFLA supporters, president Kristan Hawkins said, “The undercover video released this week that showed Planned Parenthood’s top abortionist, Dr. Deborah Nucatola, casually discussing how she fills the orders for the body parts of aborted babies for the day, was shocking.”

“Planned Parenthood has betrayed women,” Hawkins added. “I’ve had enough. This is why we are going to rally with each other against Planned Parenthood. They have betrayed women, their children and their families – and they did it all with taxpayer dollars.”
