Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WVa) pledged his support for the Hyde Amendment, saying "I'm going to support Hyde in every way possible." This is good news for the majority of Americans who don't believe their taxpayer dollars should be used to subsidize abortions.
Rev. Dean Nelson of Human Coalition Action has been a vocal supporter of the Hyde Amendment. Recently, he signed this coalition letter urging Congress to protect Hyde. As a Black man, he's also argued that it provides a legal barrier to the abortion industry's exploitation of people of color.
Rev. Nelson and many others will continue to educate the public as well as lobby Congress and the White House on the importance of protecting Hyde.
