The Houston Chronicle reports: “Harris County can spend public money to counter Texas’ strict new abortion law, analysts say.” I have more on the story on the homepage.

“President Biden and congressional Democrats spent trillions of dollars in reckless spending earlier this year without the Hyde Amendment to protect taxpayer dollars from creating a slush fund for the abortion industry,” Montana GOP senator Steve Daines, chairman of the Senate Pro-Life Caucus, told National Review. “It’s shameful that Democrats are trying to pass another multitrillion-dollar tax-and-spending spree to provide even more taxpayer funding for abortions. This is a gross misuse of hardworking Americans’ tax dollars that will result in the loss of innocent lives.”
