HR-3 would bar taxpayer funding of abortions. In introducing the bill Speaker Boehner said, "A ban on taxpayer funding of abortion is the will of the people and ought to be the law of the land. But current law - particularly as enforced by this Administration - does not reflect the will of the people." Speaker Boehner is to be commended for both supporting and placing a high value on the bill introduced by pro-life advocate Chris Smith.
The bill is expected to pass the House but will find opposition by very pro-abortion Senate leadership. How can Senate leaders (Democrats) be so supportive of using Federal funds to support abortion? They know that banning the use of federal money in support of abortion does NOT prevent a woman from having an abortion. The bill only prevents using federal dollars to fund abortions. With run away government spending it is time to stop spending the taxpayers money to support or fund abortions; and that should included stopping the federal funding of Planned Parenthood and similar organizations and all federal foreign aid to foreign countries for the support of abortion.
