I assume this means he submitted the bill for consideration and that he is sponsoring it.

The headline says he "dropped the bill" ... which implies the opposite.

I detest the leftist secular media.

Take a look at the comments. Take a look at the headline. I know we do not alter headlines. Even if some idiot headline editor had his head up his ....

But maybe you can add (Actually Pence STILL SUPPORTS De-Funding)

Or something like that.

Go Mike Pence.

If genocidal women intend to kill their babies let them or whoever supplied the sperm pay for it. Not the taxpayer.

What an awful headline. If you “drop” a bill, it means you’ve given up and are no longer seeking passage. Apparently, that is not what Pence is doing. He’s actually fighting for what is right.

This is the first time I've seen any media outlet use 'drop' in this way. Pence submitted the bill. You would think 'Life News' would be a little more careful.

Headline is very misleading. He didn't "drop" it, he submitted it! WAY TO GO, PENCE!! Take all their freaking money away. The House (afaik) can defund anything it wants.

DEFUND IT ALL AND I MEAN ALL!!! Everything! Including the repeal of DADT! It will cost money to implement, take every thin dime away from it!

The headline has been changed at the LifeNews website. Somebody’s head probably rolled over the original.
