Congressman Steve King released the following statement after submitting his amendment, defunding Planned Parenthood, to the omnibus spending bill: It is the obligation of Congress to restore its Article I Constitutional authority and the balance of power, said King. This omnibus is the best opportunity to support and defend our Constitutional authority. The gruesome, ghoulish, and ghastly Planned Parenthood practices brought to light by recent videos are more than enough evidence to block all federal tax dollars to Planned Parenthood. My amendment reflects the conscience of the American people and simply says: No funds authorized or appropriated by Federal law may be made available for any purpose to Planned Parenthood any affiliate or clinic of Planned Parenthood any successor. This is the fourth of nine amendments I submitted to make the omnibus spending bill a bill that fulfills the promises we all made to our constituents in 2014 and to restore Article I Constitutional authority to the United States Congress.
