Thanks to those of you who contacted your senators, the pro-life amendment offered by Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) to the Indian Health Care bill passed by a 52-42 vote yesterday morning. This is the first time language banning the federal funding of abortion has been written into permanent law. In the past, the Hyde Amendment has simply been a part of the annual appropriations legislation. Congratulations to the leaders who stood up in defense of taxpayers everywhere who agree that they should not be forced to foot the bill for the slaughter of innocent unborn children.
