"Many of us argued at the time Obamacare passed that it would funnel taxpayer dollars to elective abortions, despite President Obama’s repeated broken promises to the contrary. This independent report validates our claims and proves that yet another Obamacare promise has been broken,” Scalise said. "The administration should be held accountable for this, the most recent in a string of Obamacare broken promises to the American people. Earlier this year, the House passed bipartisan legislation to codify the Hyde Amendment, prohibiting taxpayer funding for abortion. I urge the Senate to do its job and pass the House’s bipartisan legislation that will protect the lives of mothers and their children." House Republican leadership requested the GAO report last December. The House of Representatives in January passed the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act (H.R. 7) with bipartisan support. The Senate is yet to take action on H.R. 7. Read the complete report online here.	1	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
