Girl Scouts Convention Features Pro-Abortion Speakers


Girl Scout leaders and members from across the nation will come together next month for their annual convention and the event, dubbed Renewing the Promise, again raises questions about the organization and the issue of abortion.



The Girl Scouts have come under fire from pro-life advocates for various connections to the Planned Parenthood abortion business — with former Planned Parenthood abortion facility direct Abby Johnson suggesting that pro-life Girl Scouts quit the organization.



The Girl Scouts of the United States of America (GSUSA) will celebrate 100 years of existence during its 52nd National Convention on November 10-13 with a slate of keynote speeches and plenary speakers. However, the watchdog group Speak Now Girl Scouts tells LifeNews today that they “underscore the once venerable organization’s penchant for far left agendas targeted for today’s young members.”



Speak Now spokeswoman Christy Volanski says the speakers build on the problems prolife advocates had with the 2005 Girls Scouts convention, where GSUSA drew criticism for having Kavita Ramdas, the CEO of the pro-abortion group Global Fund for Women and Dr. Johnetta Cole, an abortion advocate whose views eventually Global Fund for Women and Dr. Johnetta Cole, at their event. In 2008, the Girl Scouts honored pro-abortion activist Marie Wilson, founder of the Reproductive Rights Coalition and Organizing Fund, president of the Ms Foundation for Women and the founder and President of the White House Project. Accompanying Wilson as a keynote that year was actress Geena Davis of SeeJane, another abortion advocate. http://www.lifenews.com/2011/10/28/girl-scouts-convention-features-pro-abortion-speakers/
