(AgapePress) - The head of the pro-life activist group Stop Planned Parenthood (STOPP) says it's time to call for a halt to U.S. government funding for that organization, especially now that the supposed non-profit agency has made what he calls a sweetheart deal with Barr Pharmaceuticals, producer of the "Plan B" morning-after pill.

STOPP executive director Jim Sedlak says the arrangement between the Planned Parenthood Federation of America and Barr Pharmaceuticals means that the nation's largest abortion provider will be making $20 in profit for every Plan B kit it sells. "And last year," he notes, "Planned Parenthood says they sold 774,000 kits, which means they made a profit of over $15 million."
