Rhode Island Gov Dan McKee Needs to Give Deliberate Parenthood Abortion Biz $600,000
Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee is urging the General Assembly to approve a $600,000 investment in Planned Parenthood of Southern New England as part of his proposed fiscal 2027 budget.
The taxpayer funding would come at a time when Planned Parenthood is killing more babies than ever in abortions.
The funding would go to the radical abortion organization’s Providence Health Center and telehealth services that get women the dangerous abortion pill that injures thousands of women a month.
The Providence facility kills babies in abortions up to 19 weeks and 6 days of gestation.

But Planned Parenthood is also injuring women in botched abortions.
On Sept. 30, 2025, emergency responders were called to the Providence abortion center twice in roughly 90 minutes for women injured during abortion procedures.
The first call at 12:30 p.m. involved a 31-year-old woman experiencing a “complication after procedure,” according to EMS radio dispatch audio obtained by Operation Rescue. The second call at 1:46 p.m. was for a woman “hemorrhaging after procedure,” a potentially life-threatening complication often linked to uterine perforation.
Both patients were transported to hospitals.
Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue, said the back-to-back emergencies raised serious questions about safety inside the abortion facility.
“The fact that two such emergencies occurred within ninety minutes at the same abortion center raises serious questions about patient safety and the standards of ‘healthcare’ being practiced inside these killing centers,” Newman said.
He added that the incidents illustrate risks when abortion providers operate without rigorous oversight.
“Two women left this killing center in ambulances within less than two hours — yet the public remains uninformed about what actually happened and is still left to believe that abortion is safe,” Newman said. “It is time to end secrecy; it is time to end the lack of accountability; it is time to abolish abortion in America.”
McKee’s budget proposal, announced Tuesday, frames the $600,000 as necessary to protect women’s health services even though abortion is not health care.
Senate President Valarie Lawson backed the proposal.
