Chicago DNC Convention Attendees to Receive Free Abortions, Vasectomies as Men Face Wait List

By Illinois Review

Official attendees at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago are set to receive a unique perk this week: free abortions or a vasectomy as Planned Parenthood Great Rivers in Missouri is deploying a mobile health center just blocks from the convention site.

Vasectomies will be offered on Monday only, and the wait list is growing according to the New York Post and the New York Times. Medication abortions will be available on Monday and Tuesday.

According to Dr. Colleen McNicholas, chief medical officer of Planned Parenthood Great Rivers, “There are going to be people traveling to Chicago from all over the country. And I think we should be doing what we can as health care providers to show what the impact of good policy and bad policy is.”

An appointment reservation form indicates that “Services will be provided on a sliding-fee scale – pay what you can get the health care you need.” The form then concludes with, “Please complete this interest form and we will follow up with you to book an appointment.”

The City of Chicago and Democratic National Committee officials are expecting mass protests during the convention, as more than 150 groups have formed a nationwide coalition to march down city streets leading to the United Center – the site where delegates are expected to officially nominate Vice President Kamala Harris as their Democratic nominee for president.

The nationwide coalition expected to march in Chicago includes groups like Black Lives Matter Chicago, Freedom Socialist Party, Denver Communists, Palestinian Assembly for Liberation, Democratic Socialists of America, Milwaukee for Yemen and National Students for Justice in Palestine. The groups represent the new voice of the Democratic party, and have left traditional Democrats who remain pro-police, pro-Israel, pro-law and order and pro-America, feeling alienated and marginalized.

Many of the groups marching as part of the coalition are also against the deportation of illegal immigrants. And it’s been reported that Chicago – a sanctuary city – has seen an 11,000 percent increase in arrests of Venezuelan migrants since President Joe Biden opened up our southern border. It’s estimated that over 20,000 migrants have arrived in Chicago in the last year, costing more than $400 million – with 25 buses arriving each day dropping off an average of 1,250 migrants around the city and various surrounding communities.

Law enforcement officials insist that they are prepared for the marches and are calling on the groups to march peacefully. The DNC will be in Chicago August 19-22.
