Lockdown happy Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker is making sure that some businesses still open. In fact, some are even expanding their operations during this time.
While most businesses are shut or severely limited, Planned Parenthood has opened a brand new location in Waukegan, Illinois. Absolutely disgusting.
What’s more, National Review is reporting that Planned Parenthood used “shell-company names” on applications to keep people in the dark about their plans until it was all approved.
As a former Illinoisan, all I can say about that is, sounds like business as usual in Illinois.
Despite the strict lockdown in Illinois, Planned Parenthood has opened a new abortion clinic less than an hour north of Chicago. My latest: https://t.co/9cb3yXGohV

Illinois Right to Life Executive Director Mary Kate Knorr responded on Wednesday to news that, in the midst of Governor Pritzker’s state-wide lockdown, Planned Parenthood has covertly opened a new facility in Waukegan, IL on Tuesday, May 12.
“Governor Pritzker reminds us every day in his press conferences that we are being confined to our homes so as to protect human life, yet a brand new abortion clinic has been allowed to open,” said Knorr.
“Churches, schools, and businesses are closed… but the nation’s largest killer of the unborn is expanding. Now is the time for righteous anger. This isn’t just about our state – 13 percent of Illinois abortions are performed on out-of-state women. If you live in this COUNTRY, you should be angry.”
For the 10,000th time, abortion is not healthcare! Healthcare is meant to preserve lives, not destroy them.
Prickster is not concerned about protecting lives. He is concerned about controlling lives. You cannot claim to value life while supporting abortion clinics.
Even the healthcare industry is being destroyed by the stay-at-home orders. My brother is a physical therapist in Illinois. Because of the Prickster’s orders, his hours have been cut more than half. If the lockdown is not lifted very soon, he will be forced to sell his home and move out of state (which honestly is probably for the best).
Despite allowing a new Planned Parenthood location to open, Prickster is showing no mercy to businesses and people across the state.
“Businesses and individual professionals that are licensed by state agencies can be held accountable for defying public health orders,” he said. “Counties that try to reopen in defiance will not be reimbursed by FEMA for damage they cause themselves. Local law enforcement and the Illinois State Police can and will take action.”
…
Despite the strict shutdown in Illinois, Pritzker’s stay-at-home order stipulated that “reproductive health care providers” were essential and should remain open.
Illinois Right to Life Executive Director Mary Kate Knorr is on fire about this decision. She delivered a Facebook video message where she concluded, “Righteous anger is the only appropriate response to what we are seeing.”

“We have had our Governor and Mayor Lori Lightfoot on TV, on a regular basis. Governor Pritzker is on TV every single day talking about the value of human life and how this stay-at-home order is about the value of human life. And we just saw an abortion clinic allowed to open while all of these other businesses and churches are closed.”
…
“So, this is a moment for righteous anger. This is a moment to be angry. It is time, if you haven’t been angry yet in the midst of all the craziness we have experienced, and all of the hypocrisy we have seen on television from our politicians and the policies that they have enacted and the great lengths they gone to in the name of protecting the value of human life. If you’re not angry yet, now is the moment to get angry.”
Planned Parenthood of Illinois is now OPEN in the Waukegan area! Accessibility to healthcare has never been more important. #accessforall #healthcareaccess pic.twitter.com/Gffsvge0AC
