Buddy Carter and Republican New York Rep. Elise Stefanik introduced legislation Thursday that would prevent federal funding for transportation to get an abortion.<\/p>\n<p>The legislation, titled the Defunding Abortion Transportation Act, says that states cannot provide non-emergency medical transportation funds (NEMT) to transport individuals to receive an abortion, according to the bill obtained by the Daily Caller. The introduction of the bill comes over concerns that the Biden administration will declare that non-emergency medical transportation can be used to transport individuals to receive abortions and that it could even be used to pay for transportation across state lines.<\/p>\n<p>In late June, Health and Human Services Secretary (HHS) Xavier Becerra <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/06\/27\/hhs-secretary-becerra-biden-admin-may-help-transport-women-state-lines-abortion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">said<\/a> that President Joe Biden\u2019s administration was considering helping transport women across state lines for abortion access. Vice President Kamala Harris added that the administration was looking into possible \u201cvouchers for travel\u201d for women to access abortion. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/06\/27\/hhs-secretary-becerra-biden-admin-may-help-transport-women-state-lines-abortion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: HHS Secretary Says Biden Admin May Help Transport Women Across State Lines For Abortion)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Biden administration is gearing up to fund interstate travel for people seeking abortions. That is wrong. The Defunding Abortion Transportation Act will put guardrails in place to prevent the federal government from subsidizing the death of unborn children. Democrats\u2019 abortion agenda, which allows for taxpayer-funded, elective abortions up until the moment of birth, is extreme and must be reined in,\u201d Carter told the Daily Caller before introducing the legislation.<\/p>\n<p>Stefanik emphasized that \u201ctaxpayer dollars should NEVER fund abortions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the Biden administration attempts to subsidize access to states like New York run by Far-Left governments that continue to enable radical taxpayer-funded abortion on demand, I\u2019m working to protect life by prohibiting states from providing transportation across state lines to terminate the life of the unborn,\u201d Stefanik told the Daily Caller.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ THE BILL HERE:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View (DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) -- EXCLUSIVE: House Republicans Introduce Legislation To Prevent Federal Funding For Abortion Transportation on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/document\/582609288\/DAILY-CALLER-OBTAINED-EXCLUSIVE-House-Republicans-Introduce-Legislation-To-Prevent-Federal-Funding-For-Abortion-Transportation#from_embed\">(DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) \u2014 \u2026<\/a> by <a title=\"View Henry Rodgers&#039;s profile on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/user\/527927298\/Henry-Rodgers#from_embed\">Henry Rodgers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Wall Street Journal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/ice-says-immigrant-women-in-custody-still-entitled-to-abortion-services-11657639375\">reported<\/a> Tuesday that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will transfer pregnant migrant women <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/07\/12\/ice-abortion-transport-pregnant-migrant-women-state-lines\/\">across state lines<\/a> for abortions after they have been detained in states where abortion is not allowed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Must be reined in&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":163,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1555315","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1555315","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/163"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1555315"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1555315\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1555315"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1555315"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1555315"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
