Two hundred House Republicans, accounting for nearly the entire caucus, signed on to a pledge to oppose a budget bill that eliminates the Hyde Amendment, the measure that prevents federal funding from being used on abortion services.
"We cannot allow the Hyde Amendment and other important pro-life safeguards to be decimated by Congressional Democrats. Accordingly, we pledge to vote against any government funding bill that eliminates or weakens the Hyde Amendment or other current-law, pro-life appropriations provisions," said the letter to House and Senate leadership, released by the Republican Study Committee.Two hundred House Republicans, accounting for nearly the entire caucus, signed on to a pledge to oppose a budget bill that eliminates the Hyde Amendment, the measure that prevents federal funding from being used on abortion services.

If only the GOP senators had a fraction of their courage.
Don’t worry democrats, it’s the GOP.. They’ll collapse under the slightest resistance... Just call them raciest and watch them whimper and grovel at your feet..
Who’s the not so nearly Congress critter?
Bull, the RINOs only take a stand when they know they would lose, this is what our RINOs do. They’ve have nearly ruined this nation - here comes communism. With a single RINO in office, this nation is perpetually doomed.
It only takes a simple majority to pass a budget and there’s no pro-life Democrats that would stop the death budget much less the 11 that would be needed in the house. CCP Mitch has guaranteed its passing in the Senate by caving on the filibuster. That’s what we deserve for voting for Senators tied to the CCP. We all know the senate is chock-full of RINOs, not just Mitch.
Party has pretty much flatlined.....the few good guys remaining aren’t powerful enough to turn the rest....the Rhino’s are too rooted into the Demorats equation.
The Republican Party is dead to me.
Big talk - never any action. When it comes down to a pivotal vote, 99% run under Mommy Pelosi’s apron and suck their thumbs.
I hate them more than I hate the Demoncrats.
Dems stab in you in the front, Pukes stab you in the back.
So? They are outvoted. I mean, I’m glad they are doing this-—but there is always the gnawing concern that many would NOT do it if they were the majority.
We need to put this in their face at every campaign event going forward.
Even people who say gop never again should attend every event , meet and greet or diner. Be polite, be vocal, make them squirm.
Kabuki. Nothing more.
Heck like football players...we know their moves before they do!
