Washington, DC — As the Senate continues to propose changes to the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” – the legislation that could defund Planned Parenthood for the next ten years – The House has launched a deep-dive investigation into Planned Parenthood and its possible use of federal funds for “unpermitted purposes.”
In a letter sent to Alexis McGill Johnson, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood, Rep. Marjorie Greene requested all of Planned Parenthood’s non-public financial statements and annual reports, as well as a large catalogue of other documents.
Rep. Greene is the Chairwoman of the Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE). She has asked Planned Parenthood to answer the committee’s request no later than June 27. Additionally, Rep. Greene is requesting a “staff-level briefing” from Planned Parenthood no later than June 20, with briefers prepared to answer direct questions about federal funds and revenue.
The investigation also includes assessing Planned Parenthood’s policies and practices involving fetal tissue collection. Rep. Greene requested policies, procedures and guidelines for everything from collecting or supplying fetal tissue to compliance with the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act.
Rep. Greene writes, “Disturbingly, Planned Parenthood abortion centers across the country continue the practice of late-term abortions on healthy babies and mothers, and to participate in supplying ‘preemie’ aborted babies for organ harvesting experiments with government research funding. Planned Parenthood clinics have begun openly advertising late–term abortions into the seventh month of pregnancy.”
The letter also discusses Planned Parenthood’s contract with University of California San Diego (UCSD) for an ongoing supply of aborted babies in exchange for “the ‘valuable consideration’ of owning intellectual property developed from experimenting on them.” Records from UCSD describe aborted babies up to 23 weeks gestation as “viable” and “nonanomalous.” In other words, perfectly healthy.
“We already know Planned Parenthood is deeply involved in the illegal sale of baby body parts, and the gruesome harvest of intact babies, often born alive, often healthy,” says Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue and Co-Founder of the Center for Medical Progress – the group that first exposed this grisly truth about Planned Parenthood back in 2015.
“And we have no doubt Planned Parenthood is misusing federal funds. The abortion giant has a documented history of Medicaid fraud, and even its own employees have been in the news this past year blowing the whistle on its mismanagement of funds. Planned Parenthood doesn’t just need to be investigated, it needs to be prosecuted. We are so thankful Rep. Greene is giving her full attention to these atrocities and putting this ghastly organization under a federal microscope.”
Newman adds, “Our U.S. Senators should pay close attention to this investigation as they make crucial decisions regarding the One Big Beautiful Bill Act which could finally defund this bloody, bloated, monstrous peddler of abortion.”
