NPLA Members Lead Charge to End Tax-Funding of Abortion
No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act Passes House
As
readers of LifeLine know, National Pro-Life Alliance members and other
pro-lifers continue to gain ground in their battle to end taxpayer
funding for abortion.
Thanks to pressure from NPLA members and other pro-lifers
nationwide, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 7, the No Taxpayer
Funding for Abortion Act this past January.
This bill would establish a permanent, government-wide policy
against directly or indirectly using tax dollars for abortion.
And it would stop tax subsidies for health plans that cover abortion.
Now NPLA members are building on momentum from this victory in the
House to press for action on the parallel Senate version, S. 946,
sponsored by Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS).
Of course, NPLA members have long known Senator Wicker for his leadership on the Life at Conception Act.
Pressure Mounts to Pass No
Taxpayer Funding for
Abortion Act in Senate
NPLA Executive Director Jenni Harris said, "Now that the No Taxpayer
Funding for Abortion Act has made it through the House, it is time to
force the Senate to act." The National Pro-Life Alliance is
currently working with Senator Wicker and other pro-life Senators to
force a vote in the Senate to put politicians on record on tax moneys
for abortionists.
Senator Wicker's bill has already obtained 26 Senate cosponsors.
NPLA members and pro-lifers have rallied behind this bill because it will save in the tens of thousands of lives.
The pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute even admitted that cutting off tax dollars could cut abortions by as much as 34%.
Restrictions Currently on the
Books Inadequate to Protect
Pro-Life Taxpayers
"With public opinion on our side," notes Jenni Harris, "pro-lifers can
stop taxpayer funding of abortion by letting politicians know that
voting for tax subsidies for abortion will have severe political
consequences."
"The abortion lobby will not give up their power, or taxpayers' money, without a fight."
Passage of the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act
is needed in order to close legislative loopholes that enable abortion
providers to both slaughter the innocent and enrich themselves at
taxpayers' expense.
Congress attempted to stop the flow of tax dollars
to abortion providers with the passage of the Hyde Amendment in 1976,
yet pro-abortion bureaucrats and politicians found ways to skirt the law
using simple bookkeeping tricks.
Bill Would Stop Planned
Parenthood's $540 Million-A-
Year Taxpayer Handout
As a result of the loopholes in the Hyde Amendment, abortion
providers, like the nation's largest abortion chain Planned Parenthood,
unabashedly brag about the economic boom that taxpayer funding gives
them.
In the last two years, Planned Parenthood has received a record of
over $1 billion in direct taxpayer subsidies to promote their agenda -
resulting in a record number of unborn babies killed by them.
According to Jenni Harris, "Planned Parenthood, in turn, uses that
money for overhead and salaries, freeing up more cash to perform
abortions, lobby for yet more taxpayer funding, fight state and federal
pro-life initiatives and support radical pro-abortion candidates."
ObamaCare Sneaks Even
More Tax Dollars to Abortion
Industry
Collectively, American taxpayers, including pro-lifers, have sent a
total of almost 6.8 billion tax dollars to Planned Parenthood since
1964.
With the passage of the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act,
Congress can stop America's tax money from supporting the abortion
industries' grisly trade.
The No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act is especially necessary in
order to block additional funding to abortion providers through
ObamaCare.
Of course, when the ObamaCare debate came to the forefront in 2009,
NPLA President Martin Fox and other pro-lifers immediately warned about
the threat Obama's legislation posed to the unborn.
In fact, Section 10503 of the ObamaCare Bill carved out seven billion dollars for "community health centers."
Taxpayer subsidies for so-called "community health centers" is one
deceitful way that ObamaCare uses to slip taxpayer dollars to the
pro-abortion movement.
While these tax dollars flow freely to abortion clinics, real
lifesaving organizations like Crisis Pregnancy Centers that offer free
ultrasounds and adoption assistance need not apply.
With the budget deficit soaring and Americans increasingly fed up
with ObamaCare's taxpayer funding for abortion, Harris is calling on
members to double down on the pressure to end taxpayer funding for
abortion.
Since politicians are always the most receptive to their
constituents while they are out seeking votes, the upcomiing mid-term
election offers pro-lifers a great opportunity to persuade their
candidates to come out strongly against taxpayer funding for abortion.
Mid-term Elections Give Pro-
Life Movement Opportunity to
Gain Ground
"When
NPLA members put politicians on record, one of two things happen:
either pro-lifers will stop the flow of tax dollars to the abortionists'
bloody trade, or we will expose a whole pack of wolves in sheep's
clothing, making them vulnerable to defeat in their next election
"The only way pro-lifers can lose is by doing nothing," advises Harris.

Millions of Tax Dollars to
Abortion Lobby Annually
