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. “This is a campaign by pro-abortion Democrats to ensure that abortion is available on demand, for any reason, at any time, and paid for with taxpayer dollars.”
Rep. Tom Cole, R-Okla., proposed an amendment to restore the amendment, a plan quickly destroyed by an all-Democrat vote.
“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.
After the Supreme Court created the “right” to abortion in Roe v. Wade in 1973, many federal programs just started handing over money to abortionists.
By 1976, the federal Medicaid program was paying for about 300,000 elective abortions annually, and the number was escalating rapidly. An amendment by pro-life Congressman Henry Hyde, R-Ill., to prevent federal Medicaid funds from paying for abortions was enacted.
Jennifer Popik, of National Right to Live, said it has been credited with saving more than two million lives since.
It has been adopted every year for some 40 years, and has garnered bipartisan support.

Dear Heavenly Father, the adversary is actively working in the hearts and minds of many….many who call themselves Christians. He is our enemy. I pray we would confess our sins as You are faithful to forgive each one. I pray You would keep our hearts tender and Spirit filled. I know You “hate the innocent bloodshed” of these tiny victims. “It is a fearful thing to fall in the hands of the Living God.” Jesus said “fear the One who, after you have been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him!” Father, would you strike fear in the hearts and minds of those who would support anything to do with abortion…mothers, Planned Parenthood, “leaders,” and all others! Would you keep each individual in a state of terror until they confess and turn from this evil? I pray for the unborn and ask that You have mercy on each tiny life. I pray in the Name of Your Son, The Messiah and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen
