A group of liberal clergy who advise the largest abortion provider in the United States have praised employees of the organization for “doing God’s work.”

“As faith leaders committed to justice, honesty, and liberty, we are troubled by the decades-long campaign of harassment against Planned Parenthood and those they serve,” the clergy statement reads. “Our faiths demand care for those marginalized by poverty and other oppressions.
