Republicans opposed the bill because Democrats had removed two essential abortion-related provisions: the Hyde Amendment and the Weldon Amendment, which prohibits agencies receiving federal funding from discriminating against entities because they refuse to provide or pay for abortions.
“We have countless policy differences that will take time to resolve, and protecting the lives of unborn children must be the first step,” Rep. Kay Granger (R-Texas), the top Republican on the House Appropriations Committee, told The Hill.
Some Democrats, meanwhile, argued that the Hyde Amendment is racist. “These provisions have long had a terrible and disproportionate impact on low-income women and women of color,” Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), a senior member of the House Appropriations Committee, argued. “Getting them off the books will be a huge step forward for reproductive and racial justice."
