Quick Hit: House Appropriations Committee votes to lift DC abortion ban
Crossposted at Choice Words .
via NARAL : Last night the House Appropriations Committee defeated an attempt by Reps. Todd Tiahrt (R-Kan.) and Lincoln Davis (D-Tenn.) to continue the DC abortion ban . The bill will need to pass the House with the ban on the use of locally raised funds for abortion services still removed.
This is an important step in the process of correcting a ban that amounts to anti-choice members of Congress playing politics with the lives and health of DC residents.
