Democrats charging forward with destruction of Hyde Amendment protections

The Democrat-majority House Appropriations Committee, submitting to the demands of a pro-abortion element of the extreme left, has proposed a new budget without the Hyde Amendment, which for some 40 years now has protected the lives of the unborn and American taxpayers from being billed for those abortions that are committed.

"The elimination of the Hyde Amendment by pro-abortion Democrats destroys over 40 years of previously unprecedented bipartisan support for a measure aimed at saving human lives," explained Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life.

"The most egregious aspect of the bill presented today is the removal of the Hyde Amendment, which protects lives and prohibits taxpayer funding of abortion," Cole explained.

Nearly 2.5 million lives have been saved by the Hyde Amendment since it went into effect 40 years ago.

She continued, "The majority of Americans support the Hyde Amendment and believe that the abortion industry should not be funded by taxpayers' hard-earned dollars.

At the American Center for Law and Justice, a statement explained the Hyde amendment has been affirmed by the Supreme Court, and it "it is a fairly staggering proposition that Americans should be forced to pay for abortions.

The effort to repeal the Hyde Amendment is just the latest evidence of how extreme the pro-abortion industry has become," the organization reported.
