Texas State Rep. Jonathan Stickland (R) hung a sign reading "former fetus" outside his office on Wednesday. The sign marked Stickland's opposition to Planned Parenthood's lobbying of Texas to continue giving the organization cancer screening grants.
The sign was from the anti-abortion group Texas Right to Life. It wasn't on display for long, though — Rep. Charlie Geren (R) apparently took the sign down, because "signs are not allowed to be posted in the walls of the building."
