CINCINNATI, OH\u2014Cincinnati Right to Life is encouraged by the news that Planned Parenthood will be closing two of its Southwest Ohio locations. As the nation\u2019s largest abortion provider continues to lose ground, this marks a hopeful shift toward a culture that values life and true healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The organization announced today<\/a> that on August 1 they will shutter the Hamilton and Springfield for-profit businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laura Strietmann, Executive Director of Cincinnati Right to Life shares, \u201cEvery time a Planned Parenthood closes, lives are saved and fewer lies are told. Ohioans do not need this preborn child-killing business. Women need love, support, and true healthcare at one of the hundreds of other Federally Qualified Health Centers<\/a> or from one of Ohio\u2019s many free pregnancy centers. We have always shared the truth: abortion is not healthcare. Maybe the world will wise up and start to understand and agree with this truth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both of these soon-to-be shuttered facilities had routinely referred mothers to the Planned Parenthood abortion mega-death-center on Auburn Avenue in Cincinnati or to the death facility in Kettering, OH\u2014making them complicit outposts in Planned Parenthood\u2019s abortion pipeline. Since the tragic passage of Ohio’s Issue 1 in 2023, the Auburn Avenue facility has seen a disturbing exponential increase<\/a> in traffic and the number of abortion-minded mothers entering its doors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For over a year, Cincinnati Right to Life has deployed full-time sidewalk advocates<\/a> and an ultrasound van in front of Planned Parenthood on Auburn Avenue. These trained and extraordinary volunteers are reaching vulnerable mothers and fathers before they make a devastating decision to poison, suffocate, or dismember their son or daughter at the hands of violent abortionists in Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cincinnati Right to Life also extends heartfelt thanks<\/a> to Ohio U.S. Senators Bernie Moreno and Jon Husted, as well as Congressman Warren Davidson and every other member of Ohio\u2019s congressional delegation who voted to defund Planned Parenthood through the One Big Beautiful Bill. Their leadership and commitment to protecting life at the federal level are helping shift resources away from the abortion industry and toward authentic, life-affirming care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We thank God for this victory and for every faithful supporter of the pro-life movement who continues to stand for truth and love in a culture of confusion and death.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s announcement of the pending closures are yet another reminder that Ohio does not need Planned Parenthood\u2014and never did. These are not healthcare centers; they are outposts of destruction disguised in the language of care. And with their closure, life wins another small, but significant victory.<\/p>\n\n\n
