Cecile Richards to lead Planned Parenthood
Cecile Richards, president of the political activist group America Votes and daughter of former Texas Gov. Ann Richards, was hired to lead Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
Richards will become the group's president in mid-February. Planned Parenthood advocates for reproductive issues such as birth control and sex education. There are more than 850 Planned Parenthood affiliates nationwide.
"Planned Parenthood has recruited an experienced, proven leader who has the vision and skill to lead Planned Parenthood during a period of both opportunity and challenge," said PPFA Chair Esperanza Garcia Walters.
