Planned Parenthood CEO’s Mammogram Claims Are False
by Lila Rose
In the wake of undercover evidence revealing Planned Parenthood’s abusive and illegal activity, the America’s biggest abortion business unrolled a massive PR campaign to defend its $363-million-a-year taxpayer subsidies. The campaign included TV, print, radio and online ad buys, a big pink bus rolling across the country, and numerous appearances and opinion pieces by Planned Parenthood spokespersons and supporters (including this gem by PP vice-president of communications Stuart Schear.
Planned Parenthood has been insisting that they provide invaluable health services to “millions” of America women.
Just a few weeks ago, on national television, Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards said thisabout Rep. Mike Pence’s amendment to defund Planned Parenthood:
“If this bill ever becomes law, millions of women in this country are gonna lose their health care access–not to abortion services–to basic family planning, you know, mammograms.”
Yet this is blatantly false.
We got a tip from former Planned Parenthood director, Abby Johnson, that Planned Parenthood does not provide any mammogram services. Just to be sure, our investigative team called up 30 Planned Parenthood clinics in many major metropolitan areas. Every single one of the clinics told our actor that no, they do not provide mammograms. “We don’t provide those services whatsoever,” one staffer in Arizona said. Another in Wisconsin remarked, “We are just a surgical center, we don’t really do health services.” In Overland Park, KS, at Planned Parenthood’s “Comprehensive Health Center,” they said, “We don’t actually have a, um, mammogram machine, at our clinics.”
We called 27 states total. In none of those states does Planned Parenthood provide mammograms.
We challenge Planned Parenthood to provide evidence that they provide mammograms to “millions of American women”–or to any at all.
Almost everyone has a loved one affected by cancer. It is reprehensible to play on the fears of women and their families with lies, in an attempt to extort more money from taxpayers.
Sadly, such deception and manipulation should not surprise us.
This is only the latest in Planned Parenthood’s abusive and deceptive activity. Planned Parenthood claims to provide “pregnancy options” to women, yet over 97% of their services to pregnant women are abortions. The corporation aborts 332,278 unborn boys and girls each year, gives false medical information and manipulative counseling to women, covers up the sexual abuse of young girls, and cooperates with the sexual trafficking and commercial exploitation of children.

Here's what their site says:
Breast cancer is a serious health concern. After skin cancer, it is the most common type of cancer in American women. It is a leading cause of death from cancer, too. About 200,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year in the U.S. and 40,000 women will die from it.
Breast cancer screenings, such as breast exams or mammograms, help detect breast cancer in its earliest, most treatable stage. These breast cancer detection tools can save lives. More than 9 out of 10 women who detect breast cancer early live at least five years — and many live much longer.
But some women may put off breast cancer screenings. They may be afraid of being diagnosed with breast cancer, they might not know they should be screened, they may have a hard time finding the right health care provider, or they may have concerns about the exams. It is important not to let these fears and concerns get in the way of your health. You and your health care provider can work together to protect your health.
If you have questions or concerns about breast cancer, we are here to help. A staff member at your local Planned Parenthood health center can discuss breast cancer, breast exams, and breast health with you and help you find the services you need.

Planned Parenthood (nice Orwellian double-speak) is pure evil. They should be defunded and run out of town.
Well, [W.A-R.'s] got to do something for attention, his multiple personalities aren't speaking to him any more, and his imaginary friends keep finding excuses not to come over.
Well put it this way, if I was a woman and needed a mammogram I don't think I would be calling Planned Parenthood to help me out. I would call a local practitioner or go to one of the free clinics if I didn't have any money...
But then again that's just me.....
I also don't believe everything I see on some websites either, people will lie to you in a heartbeat....

I don't think there are many free clinics that do mammograms either.

I'm not sure either but at least I figured it was an option.....

If the US had universal health care, there wouldn't be a need for Planned Parenthood.

Then it would be just like every other socialist system in the world, rationing or non-existant....... I spent 3 years in the United Kingdom and experienced it first hand, it sucks and anybody who lives there that isn't in perfect health will tell you the same thing.....
Why do you think people from around the world come to the US for health care????? I guarantee you it isn't for the rationing.......

I assure you I can match you horror story for horror story.

I think you might be surprised by how many Americans are traveling abroad for their health care.
