AUSTIN – Today, Senator Brandon Creighton (R-Conroe) issued the following statement on the recent revelation of Planned Parenthood's harvesting and selling of aborted baby body parts:

"As an unapologetic believer in the sanctity of life, this latest news about Planned Parenthood's attempt to profit from the death of the most vulnerable is both heartbreaking and chilling. We cannot sit idly by while these Gosnell-type horror stories occur. This new tragedy isn't about empowering women and it isn't about choice. I call on the Texas Department of State Health Services to investigate these distressing claims in our state. We need to continue standing strong in defense of the unborn."
