Women pressured to abort at Planned Parenthood to meet abortion ‘quota’

Planned Parenthood promotes itself as a champion of “women’s health” but it is really a chain of abortion facilities that occasionally does other things. A video Live Action released in September 2017 debunks the often repeated claim that only 3% of Planned Parenthood’s “services” are abortion. Planned Parenthood comes up with the 3% statistic through a creative bit of mathematics that claims every step of the abortion procedure is a separate “service.” The organization’s own records reveal that the abortion giant performs just 0.97% of pap smears in America. They do only 1.8% of the nation’s breast exams. But they commit nearly a third of the United States’ abortions. Planned Parenthood is serious about abortions — so serious that their centers have abortion quotas:

Planned Parenthood’s Abortion Quotas

Former Planned Parenthood director Abby Johnson spoke about Planned Parenthood’s obsession with abortion in a webcast done by her organization, And Then There Were None, a group that helps abortion workers leave the industry.

In the webcast, Johnson said that Planned Parenthood had an abortion quota. She has said this before. In her exact words:

Planned Parenthood makes more money from abortion than birth control. They certainly make more money from abortion than from the tiny amount of legitimate health care they provide. Because of this, Johnson says, they prioritize abortion above everything else:

Planned Parenthood pressured Johnson and other workers to sell abortions, and threatened to fire abortion workers who were not convincing enough women to abort.

Many women have reported how Planned Parenthood pressured them to submit to abortions. Their testimonies back up Johnson’s claims.

Lynn Zent, who is now pro-life and a dedicated sidewalk counselor, describes her abortion experience at Planned Parenthood:

Lynn made the appointment, but at the last second she changed her mind. She had been given a twilight sleep shot, and she said it did not work very well.  “I tried to get up off the table and the nurse held my shoulders down and told me to just lie there and shut up. The experience was horrible.”

Another woman describes how the Planned Parenthood worker she saw tried to manipulate her into having an abortion:

She resisted the Planned Parenthood worker’s pressure and went on to have a healthy baby. She is glad she chose life.

A woman named Alisha describes what happened when she went to Planned Parenthood for a pregnancy test:

She went in by herself. The nurse asked her if she wanted to keep “it” if she was pregnant. She said she did.

Alisha didn’t give the woman a chance to go on. She said, “Excuse me. If I am pregnant I am keeping my baby. I may not be rich but I know God will make a way!” and walked out.

There are just a few of the many testimonies from women who were pressured to abort at Planned Parenthood. The experiences of these women back up Abby Johnson’s claims that Planned Parenthood pushes abortion on vulnerable women. The abortion workers who harassed these pregnant women were quite possibly trying to meet their quota of abortions.
