According to a Roll Call op-ed by Marjorie Dannenfelser, "Earlier this year, President Joe Biden followed through on a major campaign promise to the abortion lobby --- and broke with decadeslong bipartisan consensus --- by signing a massive stimulus bill without pro-life Hyde Amendment protections. In the guise of COVID-19 relief, the so-called American Rescue Plan was the largest expansion of taxpayer-funded abortion since Obamacare. Now with the administration's budget proposal expected this week, a slew of life-saving policies modeled after Hyde could also be on the chopping block."
