Millions of federal tax dollars have been spent as part of an effort to create a “one-stop fetal tissue shop” at the University of Pittsburgh, according to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) documents revealed Aug. 3.

Nearly $3 million in federal funds went to the school beginning in 2015, according to more than 250 pages of documents obtained by Judicial Watch through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against HHS.
