As we reported Friday, ABQ City Councilor Renee Grout proposes to re-direct $250,000 Planned Parenthood funding to homeless youth and women’s shelter. We encourage concerned citizens to attend the Albuquerque City Council meeting TODAY: Monday, June 6 at 5:00 PM to voice your concerns and support councilor Renee Grout’s proposal, R-22-46.
If you are unable to attend, please make sure to contact Albuquerque City Councilors below and urge them to support R-22-46 to re-direct abortion funding to address the massive homelessness problem in the city.
“Our response as a City to the current homelessness crisis is more crucial and urgent than supporting Planned Parenthood at this time, ” said Councilor Renee Grout. “This allocation will have a much greater impact on our community than funding services that not all taxpayers agree with and many believe is immoral.”
