Boehner appoints members to Planned Parenthood investigative panel
Speaker of the House John Boehner has selected the GOP members for a House committee created to investigate the grisly practices of big abortion providers – predominantly Planned Parenthood.
Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) will chair the new committee. As chairwoman of the committee, Blackburn will be given the power of subpoena. The other members of the committee appointed thus far are:
Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.
That number should break our hearts and move us to action.
Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.
Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.
Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.
Recent videos exposing the abortion-for-baby parts business have shocked the nation, and demanded action. At my request, three House committees have been investigating the abortion business, but we still don’t have the full truth. Chairman Blackburn and our members will have the resources and the subpoena power to get to the bottom of these horrific practices, and build on our work to protect the sanctity of all human life.
The Democratic party will hold five seats on the committee. As of Friday morning, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has yet to announce who will be appointed to fill these seats.
Three other House committees have already begun conducting investigations into Planned Parenthood, following the release of undercover videos showing Planned Parenthood officials discussing the sale of fetal body parts.
