Planned Parenthood is launching a summer initiative that will train thousands of volunteers to spread its pro-abortion manifesto.
“The Power of Pink” Planned Parenthood training will educate over 3,000 abortion advocates about the abortion organization’s mission and methods whereby volunteers can most effectively encourage others to ascribe to the pro-abortion philosophy. The program, which will train more volunteers in one fell swoop than the organization has ever been done before, will take place in Detroit in July, according to CNN.
Detroit is a “beacon for progressivism,” said Planned Parenthood National Organizing Director Kelley Robinson. “Being in Detroit is a really intentional thing for us,” she added.
“I’m just really pumped,” said Lilyana Prejo Vanegaf, a Planned Parenthood volunteer who excitedly awaits the training and is hopeful many others will join in her fervor.
The training comes after Planned Parenthood sued the Trump administration Wednesday following President Donald Trump’s unveiling of a new plan to roll back Title X’s Family Planning program funding. “Planned Parenthood is going to court to stop the Trump-Pence administration from trying to impose its ideology on people,” Planned Parenthood Executive Vice President Dawn Laguens said in a statement, CNN reported.
Planned Parenthood’s visible push comes amid an increase in pro-life advocacy and protests outside of abortion clinics and coincides with a number of measures signed into law or pending approval across the nation. “The [pro-life] protesters are feeling emboldened by the political environment and seeing what they could get away with,” National Abortion Federation President Vicki Saporta said, according to The Associated Press.
