  It's my understanding that Komen has their own policy against supporting organizations that are currently under federal investigation. Pulling their support from PP is in line with that policy. Private organizations have the right to make their own policies and abide by them. This is no one's decision but Komen's, regardless of whether you agree with it or not. At least they have the integrity to follow their own policy, regardless of where outside pressure comes from. Pro-lifers need to remember that Komen could just as easily restore funding to PP, as soon as the federal investigation is complete or is stopped. You can applaud the effect of their decision but understand that it was not made for purely pro-life reasons.
