Planned Parenthood Spends Millions to Export Abortion Across State Lines: Report

Planned Parenthood’s affiliates spent $3.4 million helping women travel for abortion last year, according to a new report from the organization.

Planned Parenthood is the nation’s largest abortion provider. Nationwide, its facilities aborted more than 400,000 unborn children last year.

Planned Parenthood’s annual report for 2024 brags that its affiliates spent $3.4 million helping more than 12,500 women travel for abortion under its “patient navigation program.”

Planned Parenthood’s regional affiliate owns facilities in Little Rock and Rogers. However, Arkansas’ good, pro-life laws generally prevent those facilities from performing abortions.

But last summer, Family Council learned Planned Parenthood had secretly acquired a facility in Pittsburg, Kansas — a small town within driving distance of Northwest Arkansas.

The new location in Southeast Kansas opened in August. At the time, Family Council and others expressed concerns that the facility would make it easier for Planned Parenthood to promote abortions regionally to women in states that all have very strong, pro-life laws.

Since then, news outlets have confirmed this new Planned Parenthood facility primarily performs abortions on women from Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas.

Abortion hurts women, and it ends the lives of unborn children. Its risks and its consequences are deathly serious.

Women and families deserve better than abortion. It’s important to prohibit abortion through legislation, but we need to work to eliminate the demand for abortion as well.

One way Arkansans can do that is by supporting pro-life organizations that empower women with real options besides abortion.

Arkansas is home to more than 60 organizations that assist pregnant women — including some 45 pregnancy resource centers that help women with unplanned pregnancies.

The State of Arkansas recently voted to award $2 million in grants to pregnancy-help organizations for the 2025-2026 budget cycle.

That money is going to help a lot of women and children in the coming months — and hopefully it will encourage women not to travel to Planned Parenthood facilities in other states for abortions.

Imagine being so fanatical about savagely slaughtering human babies in their mother's wombs and doing so in the name of helping women.

DEFUND!! America will never be great again as long as abortion (among other things) is legal.

Could crossing state lines to abort a child be seen as a violation of The Mann Act?

Sex resulting in profit is involved.
