An Explanation of Planned Parenthood’s “3%” Statistic

Author Amy K. Hall Published on 01/27/2017

Planned Parenthood’s claim that abortion makes up only 3% of their services is back in the news again. The video below gives the context needed to understand that statistic. (If you’d like to see some of the same arguments in written form, see Joe Carter’s “Planned Parenthood’s Most Misleading Statistic.”)

The video doesn’t mention this, but it also seems relevant to me that the money Planned Parenthood makes from abortion accounts for 25% of their total revenue.
