Henry Cuellar claims to be pro-life, votes for taxpayer-funded abortions

July 30, 2021

Henry Cuellar claims to be pro-life, but he wants taxpayers to foot the bill for abortions.

Cuellar previously told Roll Call he “opposes federal funding for abortion.”

But yesterday Cuellar voted for a $600 billion partisan spending bill which eliminates the Hyde Amendment, a measure that prohibits taxpayer-funded abortion.
