Unlike any previous major party platform, the final draft of the 2016 Democratic platform explicitly calls for the repeal of the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits the use of federal funds for abortion except in cases of rape, incest and the life of the mother.
A press release from the Democratic Party on Saturday proudly announced, “The platform goes further than previous Democratic platforms on women’s reproductive rights. It champions Planned Parenthood health centers and commits to push back on all Republican efforts to defund it.”
"The platform also vows to oppose, and seek to overturn, all federal and state laws that impede a woman’s access to abortion, including by repealing the Hyde Amendment,” the press release stated.
A statement from Clinton campaign senior policy advisor Maya Harris said: “for the first time, the Democratic Party platform explicitly calls for repealing the Hyde Amendment, which restricts access to women’s reproductive rights, particularly low-income women and women of color.”

This ISN’T a losing issue, man. Most people dont want abortion to be paid with taxes.
Most people think the whole f...t in the wrong bathroom thing is crazy too!!
I think republicans have missed chances with these two things because they themselves are f....ts.
Trump would be wise to at least use the abortion issue to pound away. It’s not a loser like the media makes us think. It’s a winner.
And he said making a third bathroom for TGs would destroy small businesses. He should run with that too, even though he basically said it hasn’t been an issue up to now.
He’s probably right, but they’ve taken it to a whole new level.
These are TWO GOOD ISSUES, especially with him not doing nearly as well with women, he can turn the tide against hillary. What women want men in their bathrooms??!!
DNC: standing up for murders, perversions, licentiousness, lies and all kinds of stuff like that there.
Moss Eisley has nothing on them....
Trump is only in favor of abortion in cases of rape, incest and life of the mother. Just like the Hyde Amendment states.
This is a joke, right? We all know that whatever money abortion business receive is funneled directly into abortion, regardless of its intended purpose. And we also know that low-income women are primary targets of the abortion industry. That would not be the case if they were paying for their own abortions, which most of them cannot afford.
How about, instead of overturning any "restrictions" on abortion (like those laws that regulate abortion mills just like medical providers) and otherwise giving abortion mills free reign to do whatever they want to women and babies, let's STOP the flow of taxpayer money to them. And get out the message that women will have to pay for their own abortions if they want to be irresponsible by having unprotected sex.
I never said any different. But it should be out there front and center. It is a winner, not a loser, like most think.
I’m not saying him, but you know repbublicans are terrified to run with it. Remember romney, that jerk.
And the justice department will have a STRONG say in the state laws that have been passed. That’s another thing to drive home.
American women have already killed more than 50 million of their own children since 1973 - that’s not enough?
What possesses women to willingly, even eagerly, be so bloodthirsty as to fight tooth and nail for this?
I didn’t see too many get upset when it was revealed even the body parts of murdered children were routinely bought and sold like used car parts from a junk yard.
“...and otherwise giving abortion mills free reign to do whatever they want to women and babies...”
___________________________________________________
How about those women you speak of simply avoid going into the abortion mill in the first place? Maybe if they didn’t make the decision to kill their child the abortion mills would not have power over them.
I’d love the DNC to point out to me the language in the constitution that allows for this.
“Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.” Matthew 23:15
Blacks are the chief targets of abortion; blacks &
“ignorant” whites. Margaret Sanger made herself real
clear. Hillary also makes herself real clear.
what’s a f....t?
The Mormon Church, the GOPe, and some “evangelical leaders” support taxpayer-funded abortion at any time and for any reason - just like Hillary Clinton.
well #### them, cause I’m not a republican anymore anywa. I’m a conservative.
I didn’t leave them, they left me. To quote a Great Man.
They have to EARN us back.
And if not, they can all go straight to hell.
Trump and us, the only chance America has.
Never sure if we’re allowed to say the whole word or not here :)
The logical next step in Obamacare.
If you believe that it’s government’s responsibility to provide health care, AND that abortion is a woman’s right, then it follows you must believe the government has to pay for it.
It’s morbid but inescapable logic.
I knew right away that they wanted to make us pay for abortion, aids care, sex “change” operations, and euthanasia.
Quote:
“It’s morbid but inescapable logic.”
It is also inescapable logic that a government that pays for your “healthcare” can and will declare firearms a “public health issue” and deny insurance coverage to gun owners.
The Global Socialist Utopia will be so much fun.
Yet somehow I suspect that scores of working class Pittsburghers, who run off to Mass every Sunday, are still going to pull the “D” lever this November.
Because “they’re for DA WORKIN’ MAN!” Or something.
How can Trump possibly lose?
And there are people who say God has turned his back on America!
