"This erroneous ruling goes against the will of the citizens of Ohio. They and their lawmakers have every right to decide not to prop up abortion businesses with their tax dollars," said SBA List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. "Planned Parenthood is the nation's largest abortion business. They violently end the lives of more than 320,000 unborn children every year and are under federal investigation for their role in the harvest and sale of aborted babies' body parts. No wonder 57 percent of Ohio voters oppose sending tax dollars to Planned Parenthood instead of comprehensive alternatives that offer preventative and primary care and outnumber Planned Parenthood facilities 20 to 1 nationwide. Abortion is not health care and Planned Parenthood does not need or deserve taxpayer funds."SBA List joined Mike Gonidakis, president of Ohio Right to Life, in denouncing the ruling:
"The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals made the wrong decision when it comes to defunding Planned Parenthood in Ohio. The Constitution does not give private corporations the right to taxpayer dollars. Planned Parenthood receives countless tax dollars a year from hardworking Ohioans, which frees up their budget to fund their real priorities: abortion on demand. We trust that pro-life Attorney General Mike DeWine will defend this law that protects the conscience rights of Ohio taxpayers at the Supreme Court, and that activist judges won't get the final say in this matter."
