Former Planned Parenthood Director Turned Pro-Life Advocate

For 17 years Mayra Rodriguez worked for Planned Parenthood and for a time, was in charge of three clinics.  In 2016 she was recognized by the organization as "Employee of the Year."  However, during her tenure with Planned Parenthood, Rodriguez witnessed many things that troubled her.  Such things included falsified abortion records and serious medical complications from abortion.  However, the most drastic experience came when Planned Parenthood threatened her immigration status when she threatened to report a doctor at a clinic she directed for botching the abortion performed on a 19-year-old patient.  Mayra reported that the doctor left the head of the 14-week aborted baby within the womb of the mother and then placed an intrauterine contraceptive device inside of the mother.  
Instead of acknowledging this mistake, Planned Parenthood tried to bury it by falsifying the record.  

When Mayra first started to work for Planned Parenthood, she worked at a clinic that did not perform abortions.  Even more remarkable, she was in the U.S. on a tourist visa, and yet Planned Parenthood had no objections to hiring her.  However as Mayra continued to work in Planned Parenthood, she was eventually transferred to a clinic that did perform abortions.  While working there, she began to notice that time and again, complications arose from numerous abortions, and the clinic refused to properly document them.  When this botched abortion occurred, Mayra finally came to the realization that Planned Parenthood at its core was not about protecting women, it was about profit.  Mayra finally had enough and she refused to back down to her supervisor's demand to dismiss this case.  

Once Mayra made this decision, Planned Parenthood did everything they could to discredit her.  A short time after this incident, Planned Parenthood falsely accused Mayra of having narcotics in her office and began pushing U.S. authorities to have her deported.  After a series of legal battles that lasted three years, Mayra prevailed and Planned Parenthood was forced to pay her $3 million to settle her wrongful termination lawsuit against the organization.  Now, Mayra works against the very organization she once stood for.  Mayra revealed that Planned Parenthood deceives women into believer that abortion is the best and most simple solution to their crisis pregnancy when in truth abortion leaves them suffering from mental trauma and does permanent damage to their uterus.

Mayra now works for the other side and is doing everything in her power to show women that abortion does not have to be "their only option."
