A Planned Parenthood clinic in Grand Chute, Wisconsin, was firebombed Sunday when a homemade explosive device was left on a windowsill. An exam room was damaged, but no one was in the building at the time, and the clinic plans to reopen today. The incident follows a firebombing at the office of Texas Democratic State Sen. Wendy Davis, a known Planned Parenthood supporter. That attack came right after Texas announced plans to cut funding to Planned Parenthood. Another clinic in Pensacola, Florida, was also firebombed earlier this year.
The attacks coincide with a wave of anti-abortion measures at the state level. Last week Georgia state lawmakers passed a bill banning most abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy based on the highly contested notion that a fetus can feel pain at that stage.
