Moment of birth. As an oped in the New York Times this morning put it, pregnancy kills, abortions save lives. In other words, its better to abort a pregnancy than to bring it to term. That is their view. How many voters agree with that . Almost none. Most people find it disgusting. Just as most people, according to polls, dont think taxpayers ought to be forced to pay for abortions. Democrats running for president dont care what the polls say, theyre for it. Will you commit to abolishing the Hyde Amendment, which hurtsi poor women and women of color . Yes. And by the way, aclu, i have a near perfect voting record my entire career. An i heard you did, but imhe glad you said you would commit to abolishing the Hyde Amendment. It cant stay. I will work to overturn the Hyde Amendment, which makes it impossible for low a income womn to get access to reproductive care, including abortion services. We have work to do until we get rid of the Hyde Amendment once and for all [cheers and applause]
