Newsflash: Planned Parenthood is Corrupt. In Exposing Them, Let’s Promote Something Better

Dunking on Planned Parenthood isn’t hard. At least, not for those of us who value life from conception and believe that abortion harms women. Planned Parenthood itself tends to make it even easier.

For instance, Fox News recently reported that 37 PP affiliates applied for the Paycheck Protection Program of the CARES Act. They received a collective $80 million. The Small Business Administration wants them to return the money, which wasn’t intended for affiliates of organizations with 500 or more employees. Now Republican senators are asking the Department of Justice to investigate the affiliates. It seems at least some parties at Planned Parenthood knew they were ineligible.

Pro-lifers love this kind of news. Being America’s largest abortion provider is bad enough. Revelations like this suggest Planned Parenthood is also corrupt and greedy for money.

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with exposing Planned Parenthood. We must. But if all we ever talk about is how anti-Planned Parenthood we are, we won’t get very far in saving lives. We can’t combat the abortion provider without promoting a real alternative. Thankfully, there are real alternatives. Lots of them.
