Texas officials raid several Planned Parenthood offices, demand addresses of employees

The unbelievable harassment of the largest healthcare provider for American women has been taken to a new low in Texas:

Texas sent agents to Planned Parenthood facilities on Thursday seeking documents, the group said, calling it a "politically motivated" move that comes on the heels of the state's Republican leaders barring it from receiving Medicaid money.

Members of the Texas Office of the Inspector General made unannounced visits at Planned Parenthood health centers in Houston, Dallas and San Antonio, staying in some cases for several hours and giving Planned Parenthood 24 hours to deliver thousands of pages of documents stored at its facilities across the state, the organization said.

Some of the information they were seeking is both bizarre and possibly dangerous for Planned Parenthood employees. -snip-

... such as the home addresses of all its employees as well as their salaries and bonuses.

Disgusting attack on women's health, privacy, and rights just to further a twisted theocratic & misogynistic agenda.

But I am kind of shocked that people are not outraged by this witch hunt by Texas officials.

Hmmm, I am a while male (living life at the lowest difficulty setting), so could I stand planned parenthood's ground for them?
