“Taxation without representation lives on today in a decision by a majority on the court that ignores the wishes of state leaders who no longer want to be coerced into funding abortion,” said SFLA’s Kristan Hawkins. “This is a legitimate question and a missed opportunity — whether abortion vendors have a right to taxpayer monies.”
In response to news that a few Justices at the Supreme Court blocked review of a case addressing states deciding to invest in life-affirming healthcare rather than abortion vendors, Students for Life of America President Kristan Hawkins made the following statement: “Taxation without representation lives on today in a decision by a majority on the court that ignores the wishes of state leaders who no longer want to be coerced into funding abortion. Abortion is not healthcare, and women’s needs are better met by real, full-service medical locations, not abortion vendors. This is a legitimate question and a missed opportunity — whether abortion vendors have a right to taxpayer monies.”
