The federal government gave at least $2.7 million in taxpayer money to researchers who sought out minority babies who had been aborted in order to harvest their organs, according to internal documents released Tuesday.
Researchers stressed the importance of maintaining organ blood flow in the request, which watchdogs say could violate federal law by asking doctors to illegally preserve organs during labor-inducing abortions.
The National Institutes of Health has overseen experiments on fetal organs at the University of Pittsburgh since 2015 in what the school claimed to be a "Tissue hub." Aborted babies used in this research ranged from 6 to 42 weeks of gestation, according to government documents.
"The experiments with aborted infants at the University of Pittsburgh, sponsored by the NIH, are like Kermit Gosnell's house of horrors, but this time funded by the federal government," Daleiden told the Washington Free Beacon.
One of the study's goals, he said, was "To support researchers looking for treatments and cures for kidney disease," which disproportionately afflicts minorities.
The University of Pittsburgh has been involved in fetal organ research for more than a decade.
The university outlined its goal of becoming a "Pipeline" for fetal organ research, which would mean not only conducting this research but providing organs for other institutions to experiment on.
