Tina Smith, named on Wednesday as the replacement for resigning Democratic Sen. Al Franken in Minnesota, was praised by the state’s Governor.

But, as the Washington Examiner reports, she was also a well-paid lobbyist for abortion giant Planned Parenthood last decade.

After working for General Mills, Smith launched her own public relations firm and served as VP for Public Affairs, or the “top lobbyist” for Planned Parenthood of Minnesota.

In that time, according to news reports, she lobbied against informed consent laws for mothers and one-day waiting periods for abortions.

During her time, Planned Parenthood was Minnesota's abortion leader, aborting ten unborn children per day.

Planned Parenthood of Minnesota continues to thrive as revenues from abortions and other services hit $25 million last fiscal year, supported by more than $5 million in government grants.
