Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin to close four clinics
Planned Parenthood announced on Monday that starting in April 2013, Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin will close one clinic a month for four months. By July, four of the twenty-seven Planned Parenthood clinics in Wisconsin will have shut their doors.
Planned Parenthood is feeling the effects of the decrease in state funding and points to the Wisconsin Legislature’s cutting of an estimated $1 million of funding to the organization in the last state budget as their reason for closing down these clinics.
Matt Sande, director of legislation for Pro-Life Wisconsin, spoke of the victory that this is for taxpayers who were being forced to subsidize abortions as a results of the state’s support of Planned Parenthood:
In 2008, a Live Action investigation found Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin failing to report suspected child sexual abuse as required by state law. The video of this investigation has been embedded below, and additional information surrounding this incident can be found here.
