National Right to Life Thanks Pro-Life Senators for Advancing Historic Pro-Life Legislation
WASHINGTON — National Right to Life (NRLC) today praised pro-life Republican senators and senate leadership for passing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act passed in the Senate 51-50 following intense debate and negotiation. Vice President J.D. Vance cast the tie-breaking
vote.
The bill blocks taxpayer dollars from flowing to organizations that perform or promote abortion, including Planned Parenthood, for one year.
The following is a statement from Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life:
This vote is a
monumental step forward for unborn children and their mothers. We thank every pro-life senator who stood firm in defense of innocent human life and voted to direct federal tax dollars away from the abortion industry.
We are especially grateful to Senate leadership for ensuring this life-saving provision remained intact throughout the legislative process. We thank Senate Majority Leader
John Thune, Majority Whip John Barrasso and Chief Deputy Whip Mike Crapo for their leadership on this issue. Their resolve reflects the will of millions of Americans who do not want their hard-earned tax dollars used to subsidize the abortion industry.
Women deserve compassionate care that supports both mother and child. This bill is a strong affirmation that we can and must build a
culture that supports mother and child and rejects abortion.
Founded in 1968, the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), the federation of 50 state right-to-life affiliates, is the nation's oldest and largest grassroots pro-life organization. NRLC works through legislation and education to protect innocent human life from abortion, infanticide, assisted suicide, and euthanasia.
