Planned Parenthood pauses personhood effort
Pro-life forces are preparing for a court battle to decide whether voters can decide on a Personhood amendment in Missouri.
The measure would declare that a human is a person at the biological beginning of life. Personhood Missouri went through all the obstacles in order to launch a petition drive and get a slot on a future election ballot. Personhood Missouri spokesman Dr. Gregory Thompson tells OneNewsNow that a lawsuit has brought the effort to a halt.
"Planned Parenthood is the number-one murderer of babies in our country and is being represented by the ACLU, which takes on every perversion that's against God, family and country," the spokesman reports. "They're coming against the secretary of state and the state auditor because they don't like the language of the ballot title."
Thompson says Planned Parenthood wants to manipulate and step on the right the people of Missouri have to vote on the issue.
"They make hundreds of millions of dollars off of the taxpayers and they're using some of that very money to sue the state to keep us from our constitutional rights of being able to address grievances and [being] able to voice what we decide is best for our families and our nation," Thompson contends.
If the election were held and Planned Parenthood lost, the end result, according to Thompson, would take away abortion, which is the clinic's greatest financial resource.
