House Republicans have launched their latest attack on Planned Parenthood, establishing a select committee with the power to subpoena documents and testimony. The move follows the release by an anti-choice group of heavily edited undercover videos showing Planned Parenthood employees discussing the sharing of fetal tissue with researchers. Republican Utah Congressmember Jason Chaffetz, who presided over a five-hour hearing grilling Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards last week, has acknowledged to CNN: “I’m not suggesting that [Planned Parenthood] broke the law.” Chaffetz is seeking to become the next speaker of the House.
