U.S. abortion-giant Planned Parenthood would keep almost 90 percent of its taxpayer revenue if Congress passed a supposed “defunding” bill introduced by NC Rep. Renee Ellmers, a close ally of the GOP’s leadership.

The Obama administration has awarded more than $1 million in “navigator”grants to Planned Parenthood affiliates for their efforts to help sign people up for Obamacare during the coming open enrollment period.

Kansas loses approximately $370,000 annually in federal Title X “family planning” funding that the Planned Parenthood affiliates in Wichita and Hays – and another unaffiliated facility in Dodge City – had been receiving. The Obama administration acted after Kansas passed a bill that directed Title X “family planning” funds to public health departments and hospitals, shifting it away from Planned Parenthood.

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin hosted Rep. Diane Black (R-TN) on One America News’ (OAN) On Point to discuss the fight to defund Planned Parenthood.

Following the Senate’s failure to advance legislation to defund Planned Parenthood, largely along party lines, 53-46, the pro-life community reacted by vowing to press on with legislation that would defund the nation’s largest abortion provider.

Rep. Diane Black (R-TN) has introduced legislation that would prevent the Obama Administration from diluting the Oath of Allegiance required for immigrants to become citizens.

The House is leaving for its summer recess until September 8 without voting on legislation to defund Planned Parenthood in the wake of the recent gruesome videos released of the abortion giant’s practice of harvesting the body parts of aborted babies for sale to biomedical companies.

“Once again we are at a loss for words by the brazen manner in which Planned Parenthood employees casually discuss the harvesting of aborted babies’ tissue and organs. These videos give us a window into the soul of the big abortion industry and expose their past statements as flat-out lies,” Black said.

“We have known for a long time that Planned Parenthood is Child Abuse Incorporated,” said Smith, a Republican from New Jersey, in a statement to Breitbart News. “The shocking video released today revealing Planned Parenthood’s engagement in selling baby body parts demands a response from Congress, and we will provide one.”

“The fact that Planned Parenthood performs upwards of 327,000 abortions a year is heartbreaking and barbaric enough on its own,” Rep. Diane Black said in a statement to Breitbart News. “The news that its employees engaged in the selling of aborted babies’ body parts is almost too much to bear and shows that Planned Parenthood’s disregard for innocent human life was even worse than we imagined.”

Taxpayer-funded abortion giant Planned Parenthood sent out a panicky tweet Sunday trying to galvanize its core supporters, telling them that laws restricting abortions had “skyrocketed” in the last decade, something it finds “mind-boggling.”

With the announcement that Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) is in full support of a measure that would ban abortions in the United States past 20 weeks of pregnancy, all the current likely GOP presidential contenders appear to be on board with the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The question is: Where is the U.S. House?

A newly released Government Accountability Office (GAO) report confirms that Planned Parenthood Federation of America and five other groups are using taxpayer funds to advocate for abortions as “reproductive health care.”

Rep. Diane Black introduces a measure strongly condemning the violence against religious minorities in the Middle East and reaffirming America’s commitment to promoting religious liberty and tolerance around the world.

The Obama administration admits it sent some 800,000 Obamacare users the wrong tax information, a glitch that will cause delays in their tax refund and that Rep. Diane Black says is yet another problem for the failing program.

President Barack Obama is putting lawbreakers ahead of unemployed Tennesseans, Rep. Diane Black (R-TN) argues ahead of President Obama’s appearance in The Volunteer State.  “More than 200,000 Tennesseans remain out of work, but rather than prioritize their plight, the President

Two conservative members of Congress, Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI) and Diane Black (R-TN), introduced the Religious Freedom Tax Repeal Act of 2012, H.R. 6097, on the floor of the House of Representatives on Tuesday.  The bill, which has 55 additional co-sponsors,
