Biden has not at this point changed his position on the Hyde Amendment, his campaign told HuffPost, and contended that the Hyde Amendment does not prevent organizations in the U.S. that provide lifesaving health care services for women from receiving the federal funding they need.
Because the provision bans Medicaid, Medicare and other federal health insurance programs from covering the vast majority of abortions, low-income women and women of color are disproportionately affected by it. Democrats and other 2020 candidates quickly slammed Biden for standing by such a policy.
Its been the law for a while, and its been wrong for a long time, his opponent Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said. Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) ― three others in the Democratic 2020 field ― also spoke out against the Hyde Amendment following his campaigns comments.
By Thursday, Biden had changed his tune.
I cant justify leaving millions of women without the health care they need. ... If I believe health care is a right, as I do, I can no longer support [the amendment], he said.

Can’t wait for this front runner to appear on stage. The Dems are going to to rip each other to bits with their leftist stupidity.

Biden has been in Washington for nearly 50 years while America went into the crapper.
Now we need to elect him to fix things?
