Live Action Demands Congress Defund Planned Parenthood with Over 200 Demonstrations Nationwide on ‘Defund Day’ 

Over 200 peaceful demonstrations will occur at Planned Parenthood  facilities across the country.

Washington, D.C. – Live Action, one of the nation’s leading human rights organizations, is uniting pro-life Americans across the country for a single, coordinated day of demonstration at Planned Parenthood facilities. 

At 10:00 AM local time on June 28, thousands of Americans will gather at over 200 Planned Parenthood locations to demand Congress defund the abortion and trans-sex hormone giant Planned Parenthood and expose the organization’s ongoing abuse: abortion, child sterilization, and sexual indoctrination in schools. A Defund Day demonstration is occuring in every state with a Planned Parenthood location.

Individuals can sign up and attend one of the many rallies nationwide. 

Lila Rose, founder and president of Live Action, will lead the flagship demonstration at a Planned Parenthood facility in Anaheim, California located at 801 E. Katella Ave. A live stream will also be available for this event. 

Rose released the following comment about Defund Day:

“Congress and President Trump must act now to defund Planned Parenthood. On June 28th, peaceful Americans across the country are gathering outside more than two hundred Planned Parenthood locations to send one clear message: we will not fund the slaughter of children. The American people do not want their tax dollars financing the abuse, mutilation, and death carried out by this corrupt organization. It’s time to end it. Defund Planned Parenthood now.”
