The first hearing in Congress about the defunding of Planned Parenthood took place Wednesday.

The hearing was titled “Examining the Horrific Abortion Practices at the Nation’s Largest Abortion Provider” by the House Judiciary Committee.  More hearings are expected through the fall spurred by the undercover videos that show Planned Parenthood selling baby body parts.

The chairman of the committee, Rep. Bob Goodlatte of Virginia, opened the session with a call for a ban on all abortions after five months to “help ensure that the body parts of late-aborted babies cannot be sold because late-term abortions would be generally prohibited.”

Republicans on the panel cited the multiple videos released by the Center for Medical Progress showing the behind the scenes actions of Planned Parenthood when it came to abortions.  The videos appear to show Planned Parenthood engaging in illegal activities.

“Planned Parenthood and its executives must answer for the alleged atrocities brought to light in the videos by the Center for Medical Progress,” Constitution and Civil Justice Subcommittee Chairman Trent Franks of Arizona said.

Planned Parenthood reps claimed they have done nothing wrong.

“While all of these congressional investigations are based on false claims and videos that have been completely discredited, we continue to be fully transparent and cooperate with all of the committees,” said spokesman Eric Ferrero.
