Re:

Planned Parenthood of the Columbia Willamette and Planned Parenthood of

Southwestern Oregon

Dear Representatives:
I am writing to respond to your letter of September 29, 2015 regarding Planned Parenthood of
Southwestern Oregon (PPSO). As a matter of clarification, while we are proud to provide
high-quality health care to the citizens of Oregon, we are not involved in any medical research
involving any pregnancy-related tissue. As a result, we do not have any information responsive
to your questions.

We trust that this letter satisfies your inquiry.

Regards,

Lisa Gardner
