Save Hyde

Since 1976, the federal Hyde Amendment has protected taxpayers from being forced to pay for other people’s abortions. It has been included in every federal budget for more than four decades.

President Biden and pro-abortion leaders in Congress are now attempting to pass a federal budget that removes the Hyde Amendment. If they are successful, “free” abortions will be provided with your tax dollars, and abortions will increase massively.

Michigan banned state tax dollars from paying for abortions in 1988. In one year, abortions declined by 22%. Since then, our state version of the Hyde Amendment has saved an estimated 252,855 lives.

Take action today to preserve the Hyde Amendment and ensure that your tax dollars are not used to pay for abortions.
