Stop Taxpayer-funded Abortions

Chris Motz is joined by Greg Schleppenbach, the associate director of the Secretariat for Pro-Life Activities at the USCCB to discuss current threats to the Hyde Amendment, which for 45 years has kept any taxpayer dollars from being used to fund abortions. Folks can go to NoTaxpayerAbortion.com to sign a petition in defense of Hyde. Chris and Greg also discuss what the Equality Act means for pro-life movement (bad news), Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization at the Supreme Court (good news), and a national perspective on state action during 2021 state legislative cycle (more good news).
