Number of Planned Parenthood clinics drops 23% since
1995 as two more close

I was researching something
last week and stumbled on an
announcement by Planned Parenthood of Northeast, Mid-Penn
& Bucks County in
Pennsylvania that it was shuttering its Carlisle
clinic.
This is not an abortion
mill; it is what pro-lifers call a “feeder” – a conduit to PP abortion mills.
But its closure is still a boon for the health and welfare of
that community. And Planned Parenthood’s political influence will be
removed from the area.
Add this to the news
last week that the Planned Parenthood feeder clinic in Herkimer,
New York, was also closing, and my latest tally is that the U.S. is down to 722
Planned Parenthoods, from a high in 1995 of 938.
This represents a 23% drop
in the number of Planned Parenthoods in 18 years.
Yet, as LifeNews.com
noted, the number of abortions the Planned Parenthood abortion giant commits
continues to rise every year, and PP has reported over
$1 billion in profits annually since its 2006-07 reporting period.
Sixty Abortion clinic workers have quit in the last
year

What an absolutely
incredible first year it has been for And Then There Were None! We are truly in
awe about how God has used our ministry to do some incredible things. When we
first launched our ministry in June 2012, we estimated that we would hear from
about ten abortion clinic workers each year. Boy, did God have other things in
store!
We never imagined that we
would be hearing from current and former abortionists. We also weren’t
expecting that within the first few months, we would have thirty abortion
workers leave the industry and come through ATTWN!!
That’s just the beginning,
though…
Sixty workers have come
through ATTWN this year.
30th abortion clinic closes in 2013 after killing
women in abortion

Nova Women’s Healthcare, a Fairfax , Virginia ,
abortion clinic with a history of botched abortions and at least one patient
death, will be forced to close at the end of June.
This closure is one of 30
abortion clinics to close in 2013 alone, more than doubling the number of
closures over all of last year.
“With the increased attention on abortion
clinic abuses, we are beginning to see a trend toward greater awareness and enforcement.
Many of the 30 clinics to close this year have done so due to enforcement
measures,” said Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue. “Others closed due
to lack of business, which means the pro-life movement is succeeding at
changing the public opinion and behavior toward abortion. In 1991, there were 2,176 surgical abortion clinics in America . After
the closure of Nova at the end of this month, there will be only 630 surgical
abortion clinics left. While we still have a long way to go to end the
barbaric practice of abortion in this nation, we have shown real progress.”
