DEFUNDING THE BABY KILLERS
House Republicans will
vote next week to liberate states from an
Obama rule requiring them
to subsidize Planned Parenthood. In one of his last actions, Obama effectively
forced states to fund Planned Parenthood. Many states have policies barring
state funds for the abortion giant, and Obama's 11th-hour executive order
prohibited such policies. Next week, the House plans to use the Congressional
Review Act to repeal that Obama regulation — a first salvo in their fight to
roll back Obama's legacy on abortion. According to congressional aides, the
vote is scheduled for late next week and will specifically axe Obama's Title X
rule. During his final weeks in office, Obama finalized the regulation,
explicitly barring states from pulling federal grant money from clinics that
provide abortion. Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., told The Washington
Examiner that the effort is about protecting life and stopping the federal
government from forcing states to support abortion.
