“I am pleased that the House has passed H.R. 7 as we stand firm in our efforts to ensure that the American people's tax dollars will not be used to fund the practice of abortion. I thank Congressman Chris Smith for his work on this bipartisan bill that respects the morals and views of millions of Americans and ultimately saves lives.
