The Honorable Andrew M. Cuomo

Governor of New York State
NYS State Capitol Building
Albany, NY 12224
Dear Governor Cuomo:
I respectfully request that your office conduct a full and formal investigation into
all Planned Parenthood facilities in New York State to ensure the public that none of these
government subsidized entities are engaging in the unlawful sale and trafficking of
aborted fetus organs and parts.
As I am sure you are aware, undercover footage was released Tuesday by the
Center for Medical Progress. The video showed Planned Parenthoods Senior Director of
Medical Services, Dr. Deborah Nucatola, casually describing the way Planned
Parenthood sells organs and body parts of aborted fetuses and how they sometimes alter
their method of performing an abortion based on what body part or organ commands the
greatest price on the market.
This video is highly disturbing. I am sure all New Yorkers would be relieved to
know with certainty that the abhorrent practice shown in the aforesaid video, is not
occurring in New York.
I respectfully request that you conduct a full and formal investigation into all
Planned Parenthood facilities in New York State. Thank you for your concern for the
sanctity of all human life.
Respectfully,

Claudia Tenney
Member of Assembly
