Watch Live: Obama to address Planned Parenthood

President Barack Obama is delivering remarks Friday at Planned Parenthood's annual national conference in Washington, D.C. The organization is a target of the chairman of the Republican Party, anti-abortion supporters and other pro-lifers.

Obama originally had planned to give the keynote speech at the organization's "Time for Care" gala Thursday night, an appearance he canceled to spend more time meeting those affected in West, Texas by last week's deadly explosion at a fertilizer plant.

The group, which is the largest source of reproductive health care in the nation, was recently targeted by Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, who wrote a scathing op-ed for conservative news site Red State accusing Planned Parenthood and Democrats of supporting infanticide. Priebus wrote that testimony from a Planned Parenthood lobbyist in Florida indicated the organization supports the killing of infants.

Planned Parenthood later released a statement on the lobbyist's testimony, saying, "As a trusted health care provider, Planned Parenthood strongly condemns any physician who does not follow the law or endangers a woman's or child's health. And while HB 1129 addresses a situation that is extremely unlikely and highly unusual, if the scenario presented by the legislation should happen, of course a Planned Parenthood doctor would provide appropriate care to both the woman and the infant."

The president's appearance at the gala comes at a time when infanticide has been in the national news due to the murder trial of former abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell. Gosnell, of Philadelphia, is charged with murdering one woman in 2009 during an abortion procedure and killing four babies. He and his clinic officials allegedly performed countless illegal late-term abortions.
