House Republicans introduced legislation Friday that would prohibit abortion providers from receiving federal funds.

Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana introduced the Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act rounding up the GOP's pro-life agenda for this coming week. The bill has 122 co-sponsors.

"I am grateful for the support of more than 122 original co-sponsors of this important legislation and look forward to voting to enact the Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act," Pence announced in a statement.

Title X is the only federal grant program dedicated solely to providing family planning services such as screenings and preventative services such as emergency contraceptives, birth control and abortions for low-income families. Planned Parenthood Federation of America is the largest recipient of Title X funding.

That’s right..force the Lefties to divert their attention from the smear campaign. I wonder what the rhetoric will be from the left on this one.

More than one way to skin a cat, so to speak. If we can’t stop it one way, we do a go around! I like it. :)

Good!

I am so disgusted that they cancelled the ObamaCare vote.

A rancher is murdered on his own land by an illegal alien invader and nobody says boo. Some nut sprays a crowd and it’s the end of the world.

I am so sick of this story already.

Get back to work Republicans. This country is bankrupt and going down fast. No need for a weeklong blame talk radio thon

I think the House is closed for a week because of the shooting. I could be wrong.
