TOPIC: Newly Identified Corporate Supporters of Planned Parenthood Named

Article from ChristiansUnite.com staff

Life Decisions International (LDI) has released a revised edition of The Boycott List, which identifies corporations that are boycott targets due to their support of Planned Parenthood, the world's primary abortion-advocacy group. "As a direct result of the commitment, action and prayers of pro-family people, at least 160 corporations have stopped funding Planned Parenthood," said LDI President Douglas R. Scott, Jr.
It is estimated that the boycott has cost Planned Parenthood more than $40 million since the Corporate Funding Project (CFP) began nearly 16 years ago. "This should be a testament to those who believe it is impossible to change corporate philanthropic behavior," Scott said.
Corporations appearing on The Boycott List for the first time include:

• BBJ Linen (home products)
• Carlson Companies (travel agencies, hotels...)
• Country Inns & Suites
• Park Inn
• Park Plaza
• Radisson
• Regent

...and restaurants

• T.G.I. Friday's
• Pick Up Stix

• FastSigns (graphics/printing)

InterContinental Hotels

• Candlewood
• Crowne Plaza
• Holiday Inn
• Indigo
• InterContinental
• Staybridge

• Midas (motor vehicle care)
• Paul Ecke Ranch (poinsettias)

...among others.

Corporations continuing as boycott targets from the previously released Boycott List include:

• AlphaGraphics
• Basics Office Products
• Wachovia
• Nike
• Time Warner (Cinemax, HBO, AOL, etc.)
• Bank of America
• the Dallas Cowboys
• CIGNA
• Walt Disney
• Johnson & Johnson
• Lost Arrow (Patagonia, etc.)
• Chevron
• Wells Fargo
• Whole Foods Market
• Nationwide (insurance)

...among others.

The new Boycott List includes a significantly expanded "Dishonorable Mention" section, which identifies charitable groups that are associated with Planned Parenthood and/or its agenda. Groups named in this section include:

• Amnesty International
• the American Cancer Society
• Camp Fire Girls Inc.
• Girl Scouts
• Human Rights Watch
• Kiwanis Clubs
• Doctors Without Borders
• the March of Dimes
• the Muscular Dystrophy Association
• Rotary Clubs
• the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation
• the YWCA

...among others.

"This has not been some sort of 'Jesse Jackson boycott' where we make news for a few days and then go away," Scott said. "Corporate officials are learning that those who value life are among the most dedicated people on earth. We will not go away until corporate involvement with Planned Parenthood comes to an end. The Pro-Life Movement will succeed only to the extent that pro-life people are willing to be inconvenienced," Scott said. "The very lives of children are worth that much -- and a whole lot more."
