VA Governor Received Nearly $2 Million from Planned Parenthood
When Ralph Northam was running to become governor of Virginia in 2017, Planned Parenthood was behind him every step of the way.
“It’s really clear that Virginians want and need a fierce champion like Dr. Northam to stand up for them and to stand up for women’s health,” Jennifer Allen, chief executive of Planned Parenthood Virginia PAC and Planned Parenthood Advocates of Virginia, said as she announced that abortion supporters would spend up to $3 million to elect Northam, The Washington Post reported at the time.
Planned Parenthood also praised Northam for taking “bold actions” to support abortion.
In the end, Planned Parenthood invested $1.99 million into Northam’s campaign, according to The Virginia Public Access Project........
