Activists infiltrate government agencies to advance pro-abortion, pro-transgender ‘blueprint’

Abortion activists have been strategically infiltrating government agencies through a somewhat secret program called the “Blueprint Appointments Project (BAP).” The recruitment scheme is a continuation of an ongoing strategy to expand abortion.

Sparse details of the scheme were laid out in a document entitled “2023 in Review: A focus on defending access,” which was published by the nation’s leading abortion provider, Planned Parenthood.

Ongoing Pro-abortion Blueprint

“In 2023, the global and domestic sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice community released the 2023 Blueprint for Sexual and Reproductive Health, Rights, and Justice Policy Agenda. The 2023 Blueprint Policy Agenda builds on the 2019 Blueprint Policy Agenda and all of the work that the Biden-Harris administration has done to advance sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice (SRHRJ) domestically and around the globe,” Planned Parenthood wrote.

“It lays out critical actions that the administration can take now, heading into 2024, to further protect and advance people’s access to health care and health equity,” they added.

The Blueprint for abortion activists, published at Reproblueprint.org, demanded abortion and transgender ‘care’ for children. It was endorsed by over 100 pro-abortion organizations including Planned Parenthood and their former “special affiliate” the Guttmacher Institute, Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health (ANSIRH), Center for Reproductive Rights, Physicians for Reproductive Health (PRH), Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, SIECUS, TEACH (Training in Early Abortion for Comprehensive Healthcare), The Population Council, and UCSF Bixby Center for Global Reproductive Health, among others.

The document states that “all individuals” should have abortion and sexual rights “access over their lifetimes,” with no distinction about whether the “individual” is a minor.

Live Action News previously summarized some of the manifesto’s goals as follows:

• Guarantee Abortion and “Gender-affirming care”

• Expand Sexual “Rights” to Minors

• Remove Religious Exemptions and Conscience Protections

• Expand Chemical Abortion

• Export Abortion Globally

• Fund Abortion at Taxpayer Expense

• Monitor “Misinformation”

• Protect Abortion Providers

• Attack PRCs

Blueprint Appointments Project

Enter the Blueprint Appointments Project, created to cleverly funnel a cadre of pro-abortion “champions” to infiltrate government agencies and expand access to abortion.

It appears to have been led by Campbell Spencer, a former Obama Administration appointee who worked in the White House.

“The Repro Blueprint Appointments project consists of more than 90 organizations working to advance reproductive health, rights, and justice. An important aspect of the work is ensuring that highly qualified and diverse issue experts are appointed to positions across the Administration. That’s why we are seeking interested individuals to support for key positions at all levels of the Administration,” a webinar event posted by Gain Power read.

A May of 2021 e-mail sent out by Gain Power told abortion activists that Campbell had “discussed the process of helping over 600 candidates get appointment to the Biden-Harris Administration.” It then directed recipients “To apply or to recommend an individual, please visit blueprintcoalition.org for more.”

Other webinars featured Planned Parenthood president Alexis McGill-Johnson.

According to Planned Parenthood’s document, more than 100 abortion activists “have been appointed by the Biden-Harris administration over the past three years” to various agencies, because “Personnel is Policy,” they wrote.

“One often overlooked area is the progress the Biden-Harris administration has made in appointing individuals steeped in SRHR [sexual and reproductive health and rights] experience and expertise across the administration, especially in senior level positions,” the document stated.

“More than 100 SRHR champions have been appointed by the Biden-Harris administration over the past three years. This is due, in no small part, to the efforts of the Blueprint Appointments Project, a concerted effort to build a robust pool of highly qualified SRHR experts and champions interested in serving in government,” Planned Parenthood emphasized.

“There are SRHR and health equity champions at all levels of the administration, including Xochitl Torres Small, a PPFA alumna, who was appointed deputy secretary of agriculture this year,” Planned Parenthood wrote.

“Notably, this year, President Biden nominated Nicole Berner, a PPFA alum and labor advocate, to be a judge in the 4th Circuit. If confirmed, she will be only the third out lesbian on a circuit court and the first to sit on the 4th Circuit. Julie Rikelman, who argued important SRHR cases before the Supreme Court, was also nominated in 2022 and confirmed this summer as a judge in the 1st Circuit,” the document claimed.

Planned Parenthood’s Senior Vice President of Communications and Culture, Melanie Roussell Newman, another former Obama appointee, joined a webinar about the scheme in 2021. “And, I know the Repro Blueprint Appointment, we have a form that has positions for sexual and reproductive health rights and justice in the various agencies… We do also somewhat advocate on their behalf with the current transition team,” she stated.

“It’s about your networks and your allies and as many people that can advocate for you,” she added.

Navigating the Political Appointments Process

2024 Pro-abortion Agenda

Planned Parenthood’s 2023 review praised the progress the Biden-Harris administration seemed to have accomplished in their efforts to expand abortion in past years.

In addition, according to Planned Parenthood, it also laid out to abortion activists “important action items for 2024 and beyond.”

“We are facing an ongoing global assault on human rights to undermine access to abortion, contraception, sex education, gender-affirming care, the rights of women, girls, and LGBTQ+ people, and more, alongside related crises in maternal health and STI rates. Our nation and our world cannot continue on this trajectory. While the crises we face cannot be solved by executive action alone, it is critical that the administration continue to prioritize sexual and reproductive health care and racial and gender justice in all actions and implement policies that will help ensure all people — no matter who they are, how much money they have, or where they are from — obtain and maintain sexual and reproductive autonomy,” Planned Parenthood wrote.

The abortion corporation then encouraged the Biden administration to take the following actions:

1. “Work with Congress on meaningful budgets” which would “Establish a budget that reflects a commitment to SRHRJ domestically and globally by ending restrictions that limit access to SRH coverage and care and providing adequate funding to truly meet the need for SRH coverage, including meaningfully increasing funding the Title X Family Planning Program, the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program, the Division of Adolescent and School Health, the Title V Maternal & Child Health Services Block Grant, international family planning and reproductive health programs, UNFPA, and other federal programs that address SRH.”

2. “Focus on rulemaking” by finalizing “all proposed rules that protect and expand access to health care and coverage, including abortion, birth control, and gender-affirming care, and those that regulate coverage for specific populations, including immigrants.”

3. “Affirm U.S. commitment to global SRHRJ” by launching “an initiative to integrate, elevate, and prioritize sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice across foreign policy priorities and global health, development, and humanitarian programs. This effort must include ensuring all agencies that administer global health programs and U.S. Missions provide clear, ongoing, and proactive communication that reflects U.S. support for SRHR, and clarify what is permitted under current abortion funding restrictions to ensure access to allowable abortion services, information and counseling in countries where abortion is legal; as well as communicating that the global gag rule is no longer in place.

4. “Protect access to medication abortion and self-managed abortion” by building “public education and outreach efforts to combat widespread misinformation regarding medication abortion, including creating and supporting the public availability of materials with medically accurate information about how self-managed abortion with pills works, what the common side effects are, and under what conditions a person may need to seek medical help following a medication abortion or miscarriage.”

While abortion activists take bold steps to control all aspects of government, the estimated abortion numbers are tragically climbing — which just may be their ultimate goal.
