About this sermon
Planned Parenthood released its annual report earlier this month, and it shows that in 2021 it performed a record number of abortions. The report says Planned Parenthood performed more than 383,000 abortions last year. That is an 8% increase from the previous year, yet there has been a significant decline in the number of cancer screenings and pregnancy tests the organization provides. Policy Analyst at the Heritage Foundation, Melanie Israel, joins to tell us the numbers or findings that stood out the most to her in the annual report. Israel puts these numbers into historical context for us and shares how many abortions were being performed by Planned Parenthood say 20 years ago. The report says Planned Parenthood accounted for 40% of the abortions in the United States last year. Israel discusses where the other 60% came from. She explains the timing of the report's release and why there was a delay. Israel fills us in on what other stories she is following.
