IRS is NON Political – They Will Go After Anyone!

September 3, 2010

Yesterday the New York Times reported that the former Planned Parenthood Golden Gate–umbrella organization to seven Planned Parenthood clinics in the San Francisco area–is now under investigation by the criminal division of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). According to the story, a former employee of the organization lodged a complaint with the IRS regarding an inappropriate financial relationship between Planned Parenthood and its political arm.

Meanwhile, as we begin Labor Day 2010, the national group overseeing its affiliates, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, still has not published the annual report from July, 2008-July, 2009. The report, which includes information such as the number of abortions that were performed during that time and the dollar amount received in government funding, is typically made public every April. Interestingly, this report will be the first summary of how the group has fared during the Obama Administration. What might they be hiding?

What we do know is that the non-profit is profiting quite nicely since the Obamas came to D.C. In Planned Parenthood’s IRS 990 form from July, 2008-July, 2009, they had a net profit of over $106 million dollars (and President Obama had only been in office for six months!) For more information on Planned Parenthood’s financials and other interesting facts about the organization that everyone should know, see FRC’s newly released pamphlet, Planned Parenthood: What Every Parent, Teacher, Woman, Community Leader and Elected Official Needs to Know.
