National Black Pro-Life Coalition Sued Planned Parenthood for Racial Discrimination
The National Black Pro-Life Coalition last week filed a racial discrimination lawsuit against Planned Parenthood saying the pro-abortion organization targeted Black women and babies for almost half a century.
The pro-life group is asking the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) at the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) to “investigate and hold Planned Parenthood accountable for their continuing violations of civil rights laws,” especially because their services “have had a tremendously negative and lasting impact on Black women and children – and, overall, the Black family.”
According to Catherine Davis, president of the Restoration Project, Planned Parenthood’s “actions violate the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which made it illegal for recipients of federal assistance to discriminate on the basis of race.”
