Stand up for life

Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast, located in Houston is the fourth largest Planned Parenthood affiliate in the United States. They run the largest abortion clinic in the Western Hemisphere. This clinic’s goal is to perform at least 75 abortions, six days a week. That totals over 23,000 abortions per year. And they terminate pregnancies up to 25 weeks gestation…that is babies over 6 months old.

So, you can imagine the surprise I felt when I found out that the CEO of United Airlines, Jeff Smisek, was “co-chairing” this particular affiliate’s annual gala in Houston ( www.ppaction.org). When flying on United, you will often see a video of the safety demonstration on TV monitors throughout the plane. Before the demonstration begins, Jeff Smisek will come on and thank you for flying and tell you that “image” is very important to his airline.

Well, let’s see if that is really true. Myself, along with thousands of other pro-lifers across the country, are taking a stand against United Airlines. Jeff Smisek runs the second largest airline in the world. And now he is co-chairing an event for the largest abortion clinic in the western hemisphere.

Enough is enough. It is time to expose Jeff Smisek for who he really is. He is helping to kill the most defenseless among us. And apparently, he is proud to do it! He has his name plastered on their invitation! I am taking a stand against United. Will you stand with me? Will you say no to United Airlines? Our voices do make a difference…and our dollars definitely make a difference!

Stand up for life! Email Jeff Smisek today and share your disgust: jeff.smisek@united.com.
