In a 48-page report, Attorney General Bob Ferguson rejected claims that Planned Parenthood has performed partial-birth abortions or that any of its clinics sell fetal tissue for profit “rather than simply recovering costs.”
“We found no indication that procedures performed by Planned Parenthood are anything other than performance of a legally authorized medical procedure,” Ferguson wrote in his report.
...
More than a dozen other states have also ended investigations of Planned Parenthood without finding any illegal or suspicious activity.
The scandal is that Republicans are still using the plainly fraudulent videos as a fundraising tool and an excuse to deny medical treatment to poor women.

I would like to start seeing the perpetrators of these fraudulent videos, etc. prosecuted for committing fraud.
How many tax payer dollars are they wasting? It's disgusting.
an excuse to deny medical treatment to poor women.
Why do people assume this is an attack on poor women?
The outrage was over the fetal tissue profit.
Also, while I am not a strict pro-lifer, this issue is always painted as a "war on women" or "men telling women what to do with their bodies (women are pro-lifers too!)
It's not about that at all. As far as I can tell, pro-lifers care about the babies who are being aborted and that no one speaks of for them. It's not about the women, it's not a war on women and it's not about controling their bodies or decisions. It's about the babies, the lives being aborted, often because someone made a poor choice.

Because the organization being attacked provides support to poor women.
It's pretty simple like how 2 and 2 are equal to 4 when you put them together...
WAsnt the fetal tissue research program set up by the Gingrich Congress? They cant defund PP, that would be illegal, but they can change the law that allows the program to continue.
A liberal Democratic AG from one of the bluest states in the country covering for the butchers at Planned Parenthood. Who'd a thunk it?
Has any Red State AG issued a finding that PP broke any law? I haven't seen it, but maybe I missed it.
