Planned Parenthood Continues to Practice Unlawful Behavior

(Manchester)- Today it was discovered that Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNNE), has been operating unlawfully through its distribution of abortion-inducing drugs. 

The protocols are set forward by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that abortion- inducing drugs can be prescribed to a woman up to 49 days gestation.  It has recently been exposed that PPNNE is distributing these drugs to women up until two weeks beyond the prescribed 49 days, in complete disregard for the protocol set forward by the FDA.

Ashley Pratte, Executive Director of Cornerstone released the following statement, “This blatant disregard for the law just goes to show that Planned Parenthood’s focus is clearly not on the health of the women that they serve, but instead on meeting their bottom line.  It is abhorrent to think that PPNNE is knowingly putting their clients’ lives at risk.  We at Cornerstone hope that this matter will be looked into by the Boards of Medicine and Nursing and that sufficient action will be taken against this unlawful behavior.  After discovering that they blatantly disregard the law as well as jeopardize the health of their clients, it concerns me that this specific organization is now a navigator of Obamacare funds here in the state of New Hampshire.”
