Americans tax dollars should be denied to any entity that discriminates against individual providers who morally object to abortion services.
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON DC Congressman Lamar Smith (R-TX) voted in support of The Conscience Protection Act (
S. 304) which protects health care providers
who decline to participate in abortions as a matter of conscience. The bill passed in the House 245-182.
Congressman Smith: My vote today was for common sense no health care provider should be forced to violate their conscience to fund support or perform abortions. The bill also rightly maintains that federal funding Americans tax dollars should be denied to any entity that discriminates against individual providers who morally object to abortion services.
