[Purdue ACLU] Planned Parenthood v. Indiana

[mslootha@purdue.edu]

Hi Folks,

I was just meeting with jennifer jorczak (public policy field manager / planned 
parenthood of indiana / 200 s. meridian st.,  ste 400 indianapolis 46225 / 
317.637.4362 / http://www.ppin.org / jennifer.jorczak at ppin.org) and she said 
she would be eager to speak about why the ICLU is standing up for them. 

As I now understand it, the ICLU and Planned Parenthood contend that state 
prosecutors are attempting to execute search warrants on PPIN records (of 
minors seeking PPIN services) for reasons other than those presented to the 
courts: they have little or no real hope or evidence of finding any crimes. 
These state's attorneys are in reality hoping public "outings" of who minors 
seek advice or contraception devices from PPIN will discourage them from 
seeking such help, and make it too difficult for PPIN to provide these services 
to minors.

Last month I went to the Republican call-out and heard Speaker Bosma denigrate 
Ken Falk and the ICLU by name. I think we need to do what we can to back up the 
ICLU efforts here.
