ACTION ALERT ! ! !

Help Protect the Pre-Born
 
The House Financial Services Appropriations Subcommittee has approved its annual appropriations bill with language to gut the longstanding ban on taxpayer funding for abortion in the District of Columbia.

The bill adopted the Obama administration proposal to make public funds available for abortion in D.C.  It represents a removal of what has come to be known as "the Dornan amendment," which prohibits  taxpayer dollars appropriated for D.C. from being used for abortion except in cases of rape, incest or to save the life of the mother.

Please take a moment to contact your member of Congress and ask him or her to support the reinstatement of the Dornan amendment into the Financial Services Appropriations bill.  Members are back home in their districts right now, so please contact their district offices.
