Fifth Planned Parenthood video released
AUSTIN, Texas -- An anti-abortion group has released its fifth undercover video alleging fetal organ sales that activists say was shot inside a Houston Planned Parenthood clinic.
The Center for Medical Progress' footage shows people pretending to be from a company that procures fetal tissue for research touring the Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast clinic.
What they're shown includes recently collected fetuses. Gov. Greg Abbott called the video "repulsive and unconscionable."
- Senate Democrats block vote to defund Planned Parenthood
- Undercover video increases pressure on Planned Parenthood
Tuesday's video is the fifth the center has recently released, but the first from Texas. It appears consistent with footage Planned Parenthood previously announced might have been secretly recorded.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is leading a state investigation of Planned Parenthood prompted by previous videos, and called the latest "simply appalling."
Paxton was recently indicted on felony securities fraud charges.
