Hyde Amendment NOT in proposed federal budget

UPDATE: August 23, 2021

NRLC urges: Contact your legislator!

The Senate on a near party line vote adopted the Lankford (R-OK) amendment to the Democrats’ $3.5T budget resolution to preserve the Hyde amendment. Sen. Manchin (D-WV) joined all Republicans in voting Yes. News link

September 30th is the deadline for funding the government, at which point a stopgap measure would be necessary to keep the government open. Pro-life Senators are committed to saving the Hyde Amendment and will continue working toward that goal. It is essential to tell your senators that HYDE must be saved! Sign the petition!

As a candidate for president, he promised the most radical pro-abortion groups in America that he would scrap the Hyde Amendment and force Americans to fund the killing of babies in abortions with their tax dollars. #Promisesmadepromiseskept #prolife

Statement by KRLA Executive Director Addia Wuchner

LOUISVILLE, Ky.— Promises made promises kept! Devastating. All I will say is the President is certainly a man of his word. President Biden made it official today by proposing a federal budget without the Hyde Amendment for the first time since the late 1970s when it was adopted.

If he thinks the American people are OK with their tax dollars paying for the killing of unborn children, then he doesn’t know Americans.

President Biden literally kickstarts Memorial weekend, a weekend when we honor and remember those who have fallen and given their lives for the freedoms and liberties we all cherish with the devastating undermining of a 45-year held provision that ensured taxpayer dollars did not pay for abortions.

I am convinced that Americans do not want to PAY for playing GOD with the value of human life.
