Planned Parenthood

Planned Parenthood is currently under a great deal of scrutiny concerning whether or not they violated Federal Law by selling aborted baby parts. The Federal Government is also trying to decide if they should cut the $500 million of funding that Planned Parenthood receives. While Planned Parenthood may have been breaking Federal Law, I do not believe that the government should defund them. Planned Parenthood does much more than just abortions; they do STI/STD testing and treatment, provide…

Secondly, geographic structure gives the organization the ability to hire people who are familiar with the local market (Ingram, n.d.). In Planned Parenthood’s case, this means that they are able to hire doctors and lawyers who are familiar with health care laws and practices in the area. Trusting some of these tasks to individuals at the “front lines” relieves some of the burden from top management. Similarly, patients will feel more comfortable when speaking to a fellow local who understands…

In recent news Robert Dear attacked a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, Colorado. After entering the Planned Parenthood facility with a gun and opening fire, Dear claimed to be a “baby warrior” as he took the lives of three people while wounding nine (Liss-Schultz). While this is situational irony in itself, society, whether pro-life or pro-choice, banded together to bring justice to Robert Dear. The media shockingly chose to cover this topic in a manner that takes a stance against…

Recently the Center for Medical Progress, an anti-abortion group, released three videos of Planned Parenthood discussing the sale of fetal body tissues for profit and they stirred up a controversy. Planned Parenthood provides thousands of women with services such as birth control and cancer screenings daily, but they are also one of the largest providers of abortions in the nation. The videos of Planned Parenthood discussing the sale of aborted fetal tissues, made many people very disturbed…

Defunding Planned Parenthood could result in way more unplanned pregnancies and even more abortions. Many would be willing to say that the previous statement is wrong, but yet they are unable to name another facility willing to help women of all ages with little to no money. Yes, most clinics in America offer the same things that Planned Parenthood offers but, at a cost. Most clinics require some form of insurance and copay, that is where Planned Parenthood comes into play. Planned Parenthood…

Women are having children when they are still children themselves and not having the financial stability or not knowing how to care for the children properly, that is until Margaret Sanger decided to do something about it. In her famous speech “The Children's Era” delivered in March of 1925 in New York, NY Margaret Sanger was a birth control activist who wanted to let all people know what she knew, the importance of birth control and how it could change a life. Margaret Luis Higgins on…

Which method appears to be least effective? Available methods include: (1) abstinence, the only 100%…

The issue that came up about Planned Parenthood is whether or not we should keep funding it.
