James Lankford: “I am glad to do it firm fixed price, but it is going to cost more, because I don't know what the risk is involved.”

For 50 years, the Hyde Amendment has been an important protection for American taxpayers.

Congress has taken action to ensure taxpayer dollars are not funding organizations that perform abortions, but our work to protect taxpayers and ensure federal law is followed does not stop there," said Lankford.

The U.S. Constitution protects my right to call their rhetoric what it is — racist, ignorant, and antisemitic.

Hyde was a bipartisan agreement five decades ago, and it has been included in appropriations bills every year since. We should keep that commitment in place.
