The special Republican committee for investigating Planned Parenthood is an extreme sham. National polls have shown that the American public supports Planned Parenthood, and multiple investigations have shown that Planned Parenthood hasn’t done anything wrong. Planned Parenthood, in fact, is the nation’s leading women’s health care provider and strives to provide great health care, education and choices for everyone. This attempt to attack Planned Parenthood yet again is misguided, but it isn’t the first time politicians with agendas have tried to limit women’s health care and defund Planned Parenthood.
We are lucky to have a champion like Congresswoman Suzan DelBene who will fight for the issues important to women and families. It’s wonderful to have her voice on the committee to hold these politicians accountable, but this committee shouldn’t even exist in the first place. Her constituents are lucky to have her, and I hope others follow in her footsteps. Her leadership is exactly what our district needs.
