INDIANAPOLIS (WAVE) – An Indiana
lawmaker is coming under fire for his stance against the Girl Scouts.
Republican Lawmaker Bob
Morris refused to support a resolution celebrating the 100th
anniversary of the Girl Scouts.
According to Morris, the Girl
Scouts are told to study role models that he considers "feminists, lesbian or
communist."
Morris further stated the
Girl Scouts have close ties to Planned Parenthood.
Cathey Richey of the Girl
Scouts said, "Basically we have no relationship with planned parenthood. Doesn't
exist, there is no formal relationship, there is no money that changes hands. We
have no relationship and that's the bottom line."
A letter with the head of
Planned Parenthood of Indiana condemned Morris' statements and said his
comments were "inflammatory, misleading and inaccurate."
