Planned Parenthood Loses at the Supreme Court
Any time any law seeks to put any limits on abortion, Planned Parenthood is guaranteed to sue. It is something with which legislators have to deal.

What is “Budget Reconciliation” and Why it Matters
The hottest phrase on Capitol Hill this year is “budget reconciliation.” Practically every conversation with a member of Congress, administration official, or third-party lobbyist involves mention of the coming reconciliation bill.

The Hyde Amendment and Human Life
Today, the House held an appropriations subcommittee hearing titled “The Impact on Women Seeking an Abortion but are Denied Because of an Inability to Pay.” Calling it what it is, a hearing dedicated to the elimination of the Hyde Amendment, would not be as well received.
