"Millions of Americans share my belief that unborn life should be protected in the womb. Using taxpayer dollars to fund abortions is wrong. My Senate Republican colleagues and I will continue fighting to preserve life." -Republican US Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi who sponsored the Senate version

(Washington, DC) — [LifeSiteNews.com] Congressional Republicans reintroduced legislation to ban federal taxpayer funding of abortion that would strengthen and make permanent a set of positive executive actions by President Donald Trump that a future president could undo with the stroke of a pen.

The No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act of 2025 states that "(n)o funds authorized or appropriated by Federal law, and none of the funds in any trust fund to which funds are authorized or appropriated by Federal law, shall be expended for any abortion" or for "health benefits coverage that includes coverage of abortion" except in cases of rape, incest, or medical emergency. The bill also clarifies that it does not apply to medical treatment needed after abortion complications.

The bill would effectively exclude abortion from federal health facilities, federal insurance plans, and federal tax deductions, and codify in federal law the Hyde Amendment, which is traditionally included in federal budgets on an annual basis and has been estimated to have saved more than two million lives since its adoption decades ago by forbidding most taxpayer dollars from directly funding elective abortions.

"Lives are saved when federal taxpayer dollars are not available to pay for abortion and the demise of unborn babies. Americans are often shocked to learn that abortion methods include decapitating and dismembering a child's fragile body or using drugs like mifepristone to starve the child to death before forcibly expelling him or her from the safety of the womb," said Republican US Rep. Chris Smith of New Jersey, co-chair of the Pro-Life Caucus who sponsored the House version of the bill. "The majority of Americans do not want their tax dollars used to pay for abortion. Abortion violence must be replaced with compassion and empathy for women and for defenseless unborn baby girls and boys."

"Millions of Americans share my belief that unborn life should be protected in the womb. Using taxpayer dollars to fund abortions is wrong," added Republican US Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi who sponsored the Senate version. "My Senate Republican colleagues and I will continue fighting to preserve life."... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
