Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey has taken Planned Parenthood to court, suing the entity on allegations that the abortion provider transported minors out of the state in order to perform abortions. 

Bailey wrote about the lawsuit online, saying, "We filed suit against Planned Parenthood for trafficking minors out of state to obtain abortions without parental consent. Today is our first court appearance."



In the thread that followed, Bailey explained that the lawsuit, originally filed on Feb. 29, 2024, was a "culmination of a multi-year campaign to drive Planned Parenthood out of Missouri because of its flagrant and intentional refusal to comply with state law."

"Planned Parenthood’s most recent unlawful behavior was captured on video, when Planned Parenthood staff admitted they traffic minors across state lines to perform abortions without parental consent," Bailey added. 

The lawsuit alleges that Planned Parenthood took minors out of the state of Missouri in "violation of the laws of Missouri regarding parental consent for minors traveling for interstate abortions" and that the abortion provider has a "long and troubling history of failing to comply with the law."

Other lawbreaking alleged by Bailey against Planned Parenthood included using moldy equipment to perform abortions, failing to file reports when women experienced medical complications from abortion, and minors were seen on video getting transported out of Missouri to receive an abortion with parental consent in 2020 and that the entity did it "every day."

The lawsuit added, "The surreptitiously recorded video revealed that Planned Parenthood removes minors from school using altered doctors’ notes, transports them into Kansas for abortions, and then quickly returns them—all to avoid parents finding out."

"This violates Missouri law, which recognizes that 'permitting a child to obtain an abortion without the counsel of' a parent," Baily wrote in the lawsuit, filed in February.
