BREAKING: Biden Trashes Pro-life Protections in Proposed Budget

Proposed Budget Forces Taxpayers to Pay for Abortions

Washington, D.C. – Today, President Joe Biden proposed a budget that does not include the Hyde Amendment, a longstanding bipartisan rider that ensures taxpayer dollars do not pay for abortions.

Lila Rose, President and Founder of Live Action, and author of “Fighting for Life” responded:

“The Hyde Amendment has been one of the only truly bipartisan efforts in Congress – supported over the last four decades by Democrats and Republicans alike, including the Obama administration. But in an unprecedented bid to please his financial backers in the abortion industry, Joe Biden has announced his intent to force all Americans to fund abortions. If this budget is passed, President Biden and lawmakers will have blood on their hands as they buck decades of bipartisan policy to fund abortions. Despite campaigning as a unifier, and rather than supporting the lives of both women and children, Biden is trashing decades of bipartisan unity to use taxpayer dollars to increase the number of abortions. The Hyde Amendment has saved at least 2.5 million lives and is backed by the majority of Americans, who have made it clear that they do not wish to fund the unjust and immoral killing of children in the womb. Forcing Americans to participate financially in the killing of preborn children is immoral and gravely unjust. We urge all of Congress, Democrats, Republicans and Independents alike to reject this budget and any budget that does not include basic life protections.”
