What is Planned Parenthood afraid of?

By Ed Randazzo

Planned Parenthood is apparently threatened by a bill in the SD Legislature. HB1217 would require a doctor scheduling an abortion (pronounced infanticide) to actually meet with the woman having the procedure at least 72 hours prior. It would also require the woman to consult with a pregnancy help center for services available to her to have and keep the child. Now there’s a radical idea.

The doctor would be terribly inconvenienced under this law to actually meet with a woman who is about to commit to a procedure that will likely affect her for the rest of her life.

Planned Parenthood is so intimidated that thay are rolling out the big guns here by having their spokesperson, Kathi Di Nicola, state that Planned Parenthood has “attorneys carefully looking at this legislation.”  Threats such as these notwithstanding, the bill sponsored by Representative Roger Hunt (R-Brandon) sailed through the House and the Senate Health and Human Services Committee and just yesterday passed the full Senate.  A special thank you to all the senators who voted for this bill.

What is Planned Parenthood afraid of? The loss of the $600-$900 fee for services to terminate the life of a child and likely victimize a woman and a man for the rest of their lives.
