Dr. Rand Paul Stands for Life, Secures Vote on His Amendment to Defund Planned Parenthood

 

U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) secured a vote on his amendment to stop taxpayer dollars from going to Planned Parenthood and other entities that perform abortions.

 

Though the Senate chose to continue the status quo in a 45-48 vote, Dr. Paul’s stand forced the Senate on the record on what government is doing with the American people’s money.

 

During his speech, Dr. Paul had noted that “[t]he dirty little secret is that Republican leadership is blocking my amendment to defund Planned Parenthood” by filling the amendment tree, later saying, “The question is, what is more important to these Republicans? Saving lives or spending money?”
