Conservatives target bust of Planned Parenthood founder.

Campaign for America's Future

Conservatives target bust of Planned Parenthood founder.

CBS News: “Conservatives are demanding that a Smithsonian Institution art and history museum remove its bust of the founder of Planned Parenthood in their latest offensive against the organization. But the National Portrait Gallery says it won’t remove its bust of Margaret Sanger, an early leader of the birth control movement. It has been displayed since 2010… The conservative push to remove Sanger’s bust comes after anti-abortion activists have released eight videos showing secretly recorded conversations in which Planned Parenthood officials discuss how the organization sometimes provides fetal tissue to medical researchers. The videos have prompted investigations by several congressional committees and efforts by Republicans in Congress and several states to block government payments to the group.”

Soon we won't have any memorials or monuments. I can see a ban on any memorials within 10 years especially if the GOP has anything to do with it. They all can be vindictive and nasty.
