Planned Parenthood will provide free vasectomies and abortions at the start of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago on Monday.
“Here we come, Chicago!” Planned Parenthood Great Rivers said in a social media post. “Our mobile health clinic will be in the West Loop with @ChiAbortionFund & @TheWienerCircle Aug 19-20, providing FREE vasectomies & medication abortion. EC [emergency contraception] will also be available for free without an appointment.”

Planned Parenthood’s Mobile Clinic Draws Controversy at the DNC
In another post on Sunday (Aug. 18), Planned Parenthood Great Rivers said that all appointment slots had been filled. However, the organization encouraged followers to “Check back soon—we will share the interest form link again if we have cancellations.”
Planned Parenthood is the nation’s leading abortion provider. Earlier this month, the Great Rivers provider said on social media that “adoption is not an alternative to abortion.”
Following the news of Planned Parenthood’s free vasectomies and abortions, Democrats for Life of America (DFLA), a group whose “mission is to defend Universal Human Rights within the Democratic Party and to elect Whole Life Democrats,” posted a statement, saying:
Democrats For Life of America (DFLA) is fully opposed to abortion giant Planned Parenthood’s offering of free chemical abortions to attendees of this week’s Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago, Illinois. We continue to urge our fellow Democrats to stop doing business with Planned Parenthood and other pro-abortion groups and return to the party’s true roots of standing up and fight for the vulnerable and for the little guy. Instead of funding abortion we firmly believe in funding alternatives to abortion. This radical and act of violence against preborn children and pregnant and parenting persons must be met with radical acts of non-violence in support of those who want to choose life for their children and families.
Denny Burk, professor of biblical studies at Boyce College and president of the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, addressed Planned Parenthood’s free abortions and vasectomies.
“The New York Times reports that Planned Parenthood will offer free abortions and vasectomies at the Democratic National Convention next week. The DNC will also feature an 18-foot tall inflatable IUD,” Burk said. “These people have become a caricature of themselves.”
“They can’t just hold their murderous and anti-natalist positions,” Burk continued. “No, they have to flaunt their degradation, like a teenager rebelling against a parent. I suspect most normies will see how bizarre and extreme this is and turn away from it.”
Andrew T. Walker, an ethics professor at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, called Planned Parenthood’s abortions “demonic.”
“Yes, it is demonic that abortions would be made as convenient as a taco truck at the DNC. But what should…we expect at this point,” Walker said. “This party is at war with creation order and reason. The ability to kill unborn children is the central organizing logic of today’s Democratic Party.”
“Unconstrained freedom means everything—including the unborn—must be offered as a sacrifice to maintain the illusion of autonomy. The party’s bloodlust is the logical endpoint of rejecting Christ as Lord and installing Moloch in his place,” he added.
