WASHINGTON, DC –U.S. Representative Mark Walker (NC-06) delivers remarks on the House floor to voice his continued outrage at the two undercover videos of Planned Parenthood negotiating prices for the organs of unborn children.

Remarks as prepared for delivery:

Tonight, I join my colleagues in speaking out about the barbaric and heinous actions we all witnessed in an undercover video where Planned Parenthood was caught selling body parts of aborted children. 

In 2013, Planned Parenthood performed 327,653 abortions and received over a half-billion dollars in taxpayer funding. Ironically, this was same time that President Obama became the only sitting President to ever address this organization.

It was at this address that the President made the decision to invoke God’s blessings on these hideous activities. The mask is coming off of an organization that barters the very parts of a baby in a manner that most Americans find appalling.

It is deeply disturbing that Planned Parenthood abortion clinics not only profit from the intentional destruction of unborn children but today, a new video shows them haggling over the price of children’s organs.

So many of us are here are parents – we have watched in awe at ultrasound images of our children--we've seen their little hearts beat and marveled at God's creation.

How can we stand idly by and not speak out for these lives?

I have taken immediate action by joining several of my colleagues in a letter speaking out against Planned Parenthood's evil and depraved actions and fully support congressional investigation into the organization. 

I am proud to be an original co-sponsor of Congresswoman Black’s bill, the Title X Abortion Provider Act – we must stop these organizations from receiving a single taxpayer dollar through the Title X Program.

I urge the Senate to act quickly to pass the House's legislation that assures no taxpayer dollars are used for abortions —H.R. 7, the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act of 2015.

May God give us continued courage to seek justice, love mercy and speak out for those who can’t speak for themselves.
