Anti-Abortion Group to Air Television Ads
By Steve Peoples
The Susan B. Anthony List has spent an additional $190,000 to ensure that abortion wonât be far from votersâ minds in 2012.
The anti-abortion group will begin running radio and television ads in Washington, D.C., today featuring a former Planned Parenthood employee âexposing the true corporate realities behind Planned Parenthoodâs business model, one which requires an âabortion quotaâ to increase revenue,â according to a statement from the SBA List.
Earlier in the month, the SBA List and Planned Parenthood sponsored competing bus tours in districts across the nation to highlight the debate over sending tax dollars to Planned Parenthood. Fueled by Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) and other cultural conservatives, the issue has become a key subplot in the larger federal spending debate.
The SBA List played in 90 races and spent $11 million during the 2010 cycle and promises to be a major player in 2012, regardless of how the funding debate turns out.
SBA Pro-Life America's mission is to end abortion by electing national leaders and advocating for laws that save lives, with a special calling to promote pro-life women leaders.
