In 2009, Planned Parenthood received $363 million in government funding and performed 329,008 abortions. Congressman Mike Pence recently introduced legislation to prohibit funding to any organization that performs abortion. As Pence says:
The largest abortion provider in America should not also be the largest recipient of federal funding under Title X. For the sake of the American taxpayers . . . for the sake of the defenseless unborn and vulnerable young women who find themselves in a crisis pregnancy we must enact the Title X Abortion Provider prohibition Act and end the day of taxpayer support of these organizations.
