Despite how polling shows that majorities of Americans are opposed to funding elective abortion, especially those taking place overseas, federal dollars were spent on abortion advocacy groups to the tune of at least $1.89 billion over the course of just three years, from 2019-2021. This is according to a comprehensive GAO report, commissioned by Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ), who co-chairs the Pro-Life Caucus. The report was released on Tuesday. Those groups mentioned included Planned Parenthood affiliates, four domestic regional organizations, International Planned Parenthood Federation, and MSI Reproductive Choices from 2019 through 2021.

Planned Parenthood and domestic regional organizations received an overwhelming majority of that funding, to the tune of $1.78 billion and $107.74 million, respectively. The international pro-abortion groups, though, International Planned Parenthood Federation and MSI Reproductive Choices still received $2.03 million and $1.35 million, respectively, though. MSI Reproductive Choices did not receive funding for 2020 and 2021, though.

The federal gov wants more Americans dead. It is bringing in their replacements at a rapid rate through our open borders.
