After weeks of abortion-related stalling on the trafficking bill, which in turn has delayed Lynch, the solution turned out to be a fairly simple one. The handshake agreement on trafficking gives Republicans what they sought: assurances that none of the funds provided to trafficking victims will be used for abortions...
All of this would be fine if the current executive branch followed the law.
It doesn't. I won't be surprised if Valerie vetoes this bill, demanding funding for infanticide.
Alternatively, if the bill does pass, an executive order or other "guidance" is issued from the cabinet secretary or in one of Valerie's "signing statements" that will IGNORE the law as passed.
In the meantime, Lynch gets to gallop toward hanging our liberties out to dry.
“...the use of revenue from the laws fine structure for abortions.”
All the arguments I heard, aside from those absolutely against any abortion even for 12 and 13 year olds raped in brothels, were that it was not right to use taxpayers’ money to pay for abortions. I believe that is the prohibition of the Hyde Amendement? In fact the medical services were to be paid by fines paid by traffickers and related criminals. So the question I have is what do we do to help the young trafficked victims if they are pregnant? Are there provisions for that in the bill?
