2. I don't know yet.
I was hoping someone would post it. I've been watching a movie and didn't see the vote.

5. Trolls
Trolls come through all the time unreccing threads and they talk about it on their sites that can't be named here. (Not that I would want to send them any traffic.)

And while I'm on the subject, FUCK YOU FRANK! :hi:

9. I gave them $50 today when they called me but
I'll throw in another $20 next payday. I got my primary health care (and bc pills!) from them when I was making $5 an hour and no ins. That was 25 years ago but I won't forget it and I won't forget other women who are priced out of healthcare!!

11. Same here
We had no health insurance when we were first married. We were both students and if it wasn't for PP, I wouldn't have had health care. It was a long time ago but I'll never forget it.

12. Does something make this particular donation
tax deductible? None of my Planned Parenthood donations in the past have ever been (tax deductible).

14. This is what was printed on my receipt:
Please Note: Your contribution to Planned Parenthood Federation of America is tax deductible to the fullest extent allowable under law. IRS regulations require us to state that we did not provide any goods or services to you in consideration of your contribution. You may wish to print or save this message as your receipt for tax purposes.

16. They have always been but people have the misconception
that it is a political donation, it is a charitable donation and the charity is HEALTH SERVICES for which there is a huge need.

23. $6 a month is $72
Easily affordable if you spread it out.
