U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk Approves Bill to Prohibit Federal Abortion Funding

Washington, January 22, 2015 | Shawna Mercer (202-225-2931)
U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) has issued the following statement on the passage of H.R. 7 – the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act of 2015.”

“Today, I proudly supported the passage of H.R. 7 – the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act of 2015.” This legislation would effectively undo one of the most controversial provisions of Obamacare, which provides coverage for elective abortions through cost-sharing subsidies and federal tax credits.

“As one of the millions of Americans who oppose abortion outright, I certainly do not believe taxpayers should be forced to fund the taking of innocent lives.”
