Leana Wen survived for fewer days as leader of Planned Parenthood than their most vulnerable patients.

Catherine Glenn Foster, President & CEO of Americans United for Life, responds to the departure of Dr. Leana Wen as Planned Parenthood’s leader ([link removed][UNIQID]) :

"Planned Parenthood has from its beginning been a toxic and corrosive influence in America. Planned Parenthood has long claimed that healthcare encompasses the intentional killing of unwanted human persons, and Dr. Leana Wen—despite her brief eight-month tenure—has consistently traded on her training as a physician to perpetuate Planned Parenthood's falsehood that 'abortion is healthcare'. The pro-life movement is continuing to rack up legal victories at the state and federal levels, and we have every intention of building on those victories until we reach a post-Roe v. Wade era, and we will do that no matter who is leading America's deadliest nonprofit."

“What Planned Parenthood’s board leadership has done,” stated Tom Shakely, Chief Engagement Officer at Americans United for Life, “is simply to confirm that Planned Parenthood is solely and ideologically committed to abortion—not comprehensive care, not patient outcomes, and certainly not authentic medicine. Planned Parenthood is a single-issue organization whose most desired outcome is the ending of the lives of their most vulnerable patients—developing members of the human family.”

“We earnestly hope that Leana Wen herself is led to a conversion of heart on the fundamental human right to life. She would be a powerful witness for the capacity of all persons to recognize the truth of a difficult issue, and serve as advocates and protectors of vulnerable human persons.”

Catherine Glenn Foster’s investigative report, “Planned Parenthood: Profit. No Matter What. ([link removed][UNIQID]) ” previously detailed one aspect of the corrosive nature of America’s deadliest nonprofit—that of waste, abuse, and potential fraud on the part of an organization less committed to patient outcomes than financial outcomes:

"The weight of evidence indicates that waste by Planned Parenthood affiliates may be widespread, and suggests that such policies may be the result of, at a minimum, a policy of benign neglect over billing practices organization-wide by Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s headquarters in New York City.

"The publicly available audits … as well as confidential sources who have inside knowledge of Planned Parenthood’s operations, strongly suggest that Planned Parenthood affiliates systematically take advantage of “overbilling” opportunities to maximize revenues in complex, well-funded federal and state programs that are understaffed and rely on the integrity of the provider for program compliance."
