Please Help! Last-Minute Appeal from Planned Parenthood to Help with Legal Funds for Supreme Court Case

For those of you who haven't heard, the Supreme Court has just recently agreed to hear a Planned Parenthood case against the federal abortion ban, which Planned Parenthood has been fighting in the lower courts for a couple of years.

However, to afford the legal funds and expenses they need for the case, they need to raise a certain amount of money BEFORE MIDNIGHT TONIGHT, when their fiscal year ends. I encourage anyone out there who believes there should be no federal restrictions on abortion and who has the wherewithal to donate to please do so.

Their costs for the case are about $150,000, according to a recent email I received from them. They put out a call on Wednesday and have already received more than $50,000 and are doing a last-minute push to reach a goal of $100,000 from individual donations by midnight.

Even if you can't donate personally, if you want to help, please post this information on your blog or email it to people you know so we can make as many people aware of the issues and get as many donations as possible before the deadline.

Thanks for listening, and for helping where you can.
