Dear Fellow American,
Since the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, the states
have been empowered in ways they haven’t for half a century to take real action
to protect life. But groups like Planned Parenthood haven’t gone away.
They are as determined as ever to push abortion—in what the New York Times
called “filthy facilities” and even through the mail and push dangerous gender
transition drugs on minors.
And they want YOUR tax dollars to fund it. To fund an activist organization
with a track record of putting radical abortion and gender-identity politics
over people.
But you aren’t helpless. You can partner with ADF’s Center for Public Policy
to make a difference—to help save babies and give mothers real opportunity to
choose life, in state after state. That’s not just hyperbole.
We’re working to put an end to Planned Parenthood’s gravy train of taxpayer
funding and protect pro-life pregnancy centers—and we’re succeeding.
Step 1: Defund Big Abortion
One important way that pro-life state legislators and governors can make a
real difference is to turn off the spigot of money that Big Abortion groups
like Planned Parenthood receive.
Remember—money is fungible. That's YOUR money being spent to end unborn lives.
Thanks to the Supreme Court’s ruling in Medina v. Planned Parenthood South
Atlantic last year, states are free to defund abortion businesses like Planned
Parenthood.
Here’s one reason why this should be a no-brainer: Planned Parenthood isn’t
scraping by—it’s flush with cash. From 2018 to 2023 alone, it pulled in $3.2
billion in direct public funding, on top of hundreds of millions it receives
every year from private donations. Since 2022, it’s been riding a fundraising
surge, stacking up more than $2.5 billion in net assets.
And don’t buy the “non-abortion services” argument: that money they receive
from the government doesn’t go towards abortion. Money is fungible.Every tax
dollar you hand over frees up more resources for pro-abortion politicking and
performing more abortions.
Enough is enough.
Planned Parenthood should not get another cent from the paychecks of
hardworking Americans, including you.

States like Texas, South Carolina, Idaho, and Tennessee have already taken
action to defund Planned Parenthood and other abortion businesses. We’ll
continue to ramp up our on-the-ground efforts to encourage other states to
follow their lead.
Step 2: Protect Pregnancy Centers
It’s not enough to defund Big Abortion. We’re committed to protecting pro-life
pregnancy centers from government harassment and threats to their ability to
serve their communities. They shouldn’t be forced to endure time-consuming
litigation just to defend their basic rights.
That’s why my team is working with pro-life legislators on the CARE Act, which
includes multiple provisions that would protect pro-life pregnancy centers from
targeted harassment and attacks. Last year, Montana became the first state to
pass it last year, Wyoming and Kansas passed it this year, and several other
states are working on it as well.
Step 3: Stop Mail-Order Abortion
And we’re dedicated to putting an end to abortion activists’ end-run around
pro-life state laws by pushing chemical abortion drugs through the mail. Since
the Biden administration FDA dismantled critical safeguards that protected
young women and girls, mail-order abortion drugs have become the most common
method of abortion.
It’s frightening to think that so many mothers are left to perform their own
abortions at home or suffer coercion and abuse without even a single in-person
office visit or plans for follow-up care.
Consider Rosalie, who was coerced by her former boyfriend to take chemical
abortion drugs. He made her fear for her safety and demanded she take the drugs
to end their child’s life. She had no opportunity to ask for help—he ordered
the drugs online from a California doctor who never even spoke with her.
“If mail-order abortion wasn’t a thing, I’m 100% sure I would have my child,”
Rosalie said.
She’s now working alongside the state of Louisiana and ADF to hold the FDA
accountable for allowing the drugs that killed her child to be recklessly
distributed through the mail.
Ending Roe was a landmark moment in the decades-long effort to protect unborn
life. But much work remains—and you can play a key role in protecting the lives
that are “fearfully and wonderfully made.”
Don’t forget—your first gift today will be DOUBLED, as long as matching funds
last!

P.S. The need to defend unborn life and uphold mothers didn’t stop when Roe
was overturned.Your gift fuels the work that is saving babies, protecting
pro-life pregnancy centers, and standing with young women like Rosalie and
their unborn children. Give today and make TWICE the impact—but only while
matching funds last!
