Lila Rose Statement on Pelosi Receiving the Margaret Sanger Award

March 27, 2014 — Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, sought the elimination of “human weeds” and those “unfit” to “breed,” including African-Americans and the disabled. Those who receive Planned Parenthood’s highest award, which bears Sanger’s name, out themselves as foot soldiers in the same unjust and violent movement. They march with an industry that piles up profits from the difficult circumstances some women find themselves in, and by destroying innocent human beings.

Nancy Pelosi is really receiving the “Eugenics Award” – the Margaret Sanger Award is a euphemism for exactly this. And the reality behind the euphemism of “abortion” – not a sterile medical procedure, but a violent act that kills a newly forming human being – is no less horrific.
