Hillary Clinton Campaign Press Release - 17 Times Hillary Clinton Stood With Planned Parenthood

December 05, 2015

Hillary has always stood with Planned Parenthood—and always will.

This week, following a horrific attack on a clinic in Colorado Springs, the Senate voted to defund Planned Parenthood. Today, Planned Parenthood is coming together in a national day of solidarity, to remember the victims of the attack and take a stand against efforts to limit women's access to affordable and safe health care. Hillary is proud to stand with them—today, and every day.

" They want to deprive millions of women from getting cancer screenings, finding out whether they have HIV, getting help on family planning and contraceptives.

3. When she schooled the speaker of the House ...
