Because of the publicity this is getting it is very important that folks call and complain. This is a big, big test of the strength of the pro-life movement:

Call 1-800-845-0005 to complain.

We are profoundly disappointed that certain groups have chosen to misconstrue American Girl's purely altruistic efforts and turn them into a broader political statement on issues that we, as a corporation, have no position."

Me too!

Is Girls, Inc. assoc'd with Soros? Does anyone know?

Thanks for the information. We have a 31/2 year old granddaughter that I was hoping to buy an American Girl doll for this year. Instead I sent e-mails telling them abortion is the ultimate hate crime.

Here is a portion of the email I sent to Mattel and American Girl (thanks for providing the addresses):

I am deeply disappointed to have found out that American Girl supports Girls, Inc., an actively pro-abortion organization. I will go out of my way to inform my students and their parents as well as colleagues, neighbors and others that your company supports a group whose concern for unborn girls is nonexistent. Any attempt to support the well-being of girls on the part of Girls, Inc. must begin by allowing them to be born. Shame on American Girl for attempting to dupe customers into unknowingly supporting the pro-abortion lobby and the corrupt abortion industry. My family has spent large sums of money on American Girl products, but no more.
