Austin Approves $150K Toward Killing Pre-Born Children

The city council is continuing to use citizens’ money to pay for abortions.

Thanks to the Austin City Council, Austinites will continue to be forced to fund the killing of pre-born children.

On Tuesday, the city council approved their budget for the next fiscal year, with a deadly new amendment: They will now use $150,000 of citizens’ cash to pay for logistical costs of getting an abortion, such as rides to a facility; hotel rooms; and, ironically, childcare.

The council’s action is the first of its kind for a U.S. city and is one designed to skirt around a new Texas law. Recently enacted Senate Bill 22 makes it illegal for local governments statewide to give citizens’ cash directly to abortion businesses, something Austin City Council has historically done, so now they’re instead funneling the money to the associated logistical costs of killing children.

“We may not be able to fund abortion with city money like New York did, but definitely we knew we could help fund the transportation, the accommodations, the child care people needed,” said NARAL Pro-Choice Texas Executive Director Aimee Arrambide.
