Rand: I Think We Have 58 Votes To Defund Planned Parenthood
By Ian Hanchett, July 22, 2015 Breitbart
Kentucky Senator and Republican presidential candidate Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)93%
said that he thinks there are about 58 senators who will vote to defund Planned Parenthood on Tuesday’s “Hannity” on the Fox News Channel.
Rand said “I’m horrified by these videos and and everybody is. When i think of ultrasound, I think of the pictures of my kids before they were born and the happiness we had. To imagine that doctors are using ultrasound to manipulate the body around, turn the body around to take body parts from a baby, it just — it sickens me. And so, I’ve been fighting to defund Planned Parenthood. I don’t think they should get any taxpayer dollars. And we got good news today, we are going to get a vote on this. The Senate will vote on defunding Planned Parenthood before we leave in August.”

Senate Will Attempt To Defund Planned Parenthood Before Recess
By Natalie Johnson, July 28, 2015 Daily Signal
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday the Senate will vote on a bill to defund Planned Parenthood before lawmakers leave Capitol Hill next week for August recess.
Republican legislators have pushed heavily to strip federal funding from the group following the release of three undercover videos showing top Planned Parenthood officials discussing the sale of aborted fetal body parts for medical research.
“The leader is working with his members to address this horrific issue and intends to have a vote before we leave,” McConnell spokesman Michael Brumas said.
Republican Sens. Rand Paul, Ky.; James Lankford, Okla.; and Joni Ernst, Iowa, are working on legislation that would block federal funds from Planned Parenthood. The group receives more than $500 million annually in government grants. The money cannot be used for abortions except in specific cases involving rape and incest.

The Fight To Defund Planned Parenthood: An Interview With Rep. Diane Black
By Jamie Jackson, July 17, 2015 NewsBusters
The fight to defund Planned Parenthood is ramping up in Washington following the release of an undercover video showing a top official discussing prices for body parts from aborted babies.
In a statement released after the video, Planned Parenthood said the “heavily edited, secretly recorded videotape … falsely portrays Planned Parenthood’s participation in tissue donation programs that support lifesaving scientific research.”
The video led a group of lawmakers to call for the end of federal dollars flowing to the organization.
