The Susan B. Anthony List, an anti-abortion group, on Monday blamed Republicans for including funding for Planned Parenthood in a must-pass spending bill to keep the federal government open.
“With pro-life Republican majorities in both houses, it is incredibly disappointing that any Republican spending bill would contain continued funding for Planned Parenthood,” the group’s president Marjorie Dannenfelser said in a statement.
Dannenfelser exhorted congressional Republicans to “move quickly” and redirect funding from Planned Parenthood “using reconciliation.”
Congressional leaders on Sunday reached a compromise on a measure to fund the federal government through September, which would also ensure federal funding for Planned Parenthood until then. Congress is expected to vote on the bill early this week.
WHO GIVES A FLIP what these morons ‘think’? They are stupid and wrong and abortion is the law of the land. We have the Hyde Amendment to protect their precious little …whatevers. I, myself, am tired of funding Corporate Welfare which I’m sure a bunch of these sanctimonious jackholes support. This is the UNITED STATES and we will accommodate groups.
The right to lifers would rather see women getting sick and dying from back alley abortionists. Shows what hypocrites they really are.
Yup, must kill more younger women.
GOP needs new blood!!!
None of the money in the budget goes to provide abortions. This is a Zombie lie.
But some of the money for women’s health goes to Planned Parenthood, and women need to be punished for getting healthcare from a group who also provide healthcare the forced-birthers don’t like. Remember, these are the same people who wanted to make it illegal for anyone receiving federal funding to even mention abortion.
But these sanctimonious twits haven’t noticed that no, reconciliation is reserved in this congress for giving tax cuts to the rich.
