Republican Panel urges limits on abortion, fetal-tissue research

[spanone]

WASHINGTON - Republicans on a congressional panel investigating the medical and business practices of abortion providers are calling on the federal government to defund Planned Parenthood and limit the use of fetal tissue for scientific research.

In their final 471-page report, made public Wednesday, Republicans who make up a majority on the 14-member panel made nearly two dozen recommendations that they argued would protect women and unborn children while allowing scientific access to human fetal tissue when warranted.

“It is my hope that our recommendations will result in some necessary changes within both the abortion and fetal tissue procurement industries,” said the panel’s chairwoman, Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn.

But the panel’s Democrats blasted the report as flawed and charged it had been drafted in secret without any input from them.
