James Lankford: “I just want to say thank you. That is something that we have worked on for a couple years.”

Planned Parenthood and its affiliates have faced serious allegations involving the use of federal funds and compliance with federal law. Those allegations deserve a thorough review.

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.

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.

Now, Democrats are committed to finding every way they can to increase the number of abortions in America, including having federal taxpayers pay for elective abortions.
