Planned Parenthood Director Resigns After Watching Abortion Ultrasound

After working for Planned Parenthood for eight years, Abby Johnson resigned after watching an abortion ultrasound.

According to Johnson, the non-profit was struggling under the weight of a tough economy, and changing it’s business model from one that pushed prevention, to one that focused on abortion.

“It seemed like maybe that’s not what a lot of people were believing any more because that’s not where the money was. The money wasn’t in family planning, the money wasn’t in prevention, the money was in abortion and so I had a problem with that,” said Johnson.
