Planned Parenthood's Waste Disposal Company Sues Pro-Life Advocacy Group to Stop #ProjectWeakLink

Contact: Mark Harrington, Created Equal, 614-419-9000, mark@createdequal.org

COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 11, 2016 /Christian Newswire/ -- Created Equal officially launched #ProjectWeakLink on March 29 distributing informational postcards in the Lake Forest, IL area which is home to Planned Parenthood business partner Stericycle. On March 31 Created Equal was notified by Stericycle's attorney's that the company was seeking a temporary restraining order to stop the campaign.

Stericycle objected to Created Equal's #ProjectWeakLink, which was devised after a Michigan abortionist published a statement that abortion clinics are "one incineration company away from being closed." Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine's investigation of Planned Parenthood confirmed that Stericycle disposes of aborted fetuses for Planned Parenthood.

Today, arguments will be presented in a lawsuit by Stericycle against Created Equal. The Thomas More Society, a national non-profit law firm, will represent Created Equal and its Executive Director Mark Harrington, against a temporary restraining order intended to stifle their first amendment protected message that Stericycle is "enabling" abortion giant Planned Parenthood to kill preborn children.

WHAT: Arguments in the case of Stericycle, Inc., et al. v. Created Equal PAC, et al.

WHEN: Monday, April 11, 2016, 9 a.m. (CENTRAL)

WHERE: Lake County Courthouse, Courtroom C302, 18 North County Street, Waukegan, Illinois

WHO: Thomas More Society Special Counsel Peter Breen in defense of Created Equal, Mark Harrington, et al, before Judge Margaret Marcoullier of the Circuit Court for the 19th Judicial Circuit, Lake County, Chancery Division

Mark Harrington, National Director for Created Equal said, "If Stericycle wants to stop our awareness campaign they simply need to cease transporting, and disposing of aborted babies for Planned Parenthood. This lawsuit just confirms that Stericycle is more interested in doing the dirty work for Planned Parenthood than protecting their image as a respectable waste disposal company. Further public exposure of their sloppy and unethical business practices in a lawsuit is far more damaging to Stericycle's image than ceasing to dispose of aborted babies for Planned Parenthood. Stericycle needs to stop enabling Planned Parenthood's killing machine."
