House Speaker Nancy Pelosi argued in the past that the government should not support groups that advocate for or perform abortions, but her position, along with those of a large cohort of Democrats, has changed dramatically.
“No funds could go to organizations that in the course of family planning advocate, promote or perform abortions,†Pelosi said on the House floor Oct. 7, 1997 in support of a “Global Gag Rule,†also known as the Mexico City Policy, mandating that overseas organizations receiving U.S. aid do not promote abortion.
Now Pelosi calls a ban on late-term abortions a sad event. “It’s really quite a sad thing when you know that we’ll be talking about something that applies to the health and life, health and ability to have other children of women,†she told The Daily Caller Feb. 6.
