Lynn Jenkins co-sponsors bill to stop taxpayer-funded abortions, which barely exist

U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins is chasing the mythical dragon of taxpayer-funded abortions. The Kansas congresswoman is one of 173 co-sponsors of the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act.”

If the resolution’s name isn’t clear enough, the act would prohibit federal money from paying for abortions with a few exceptions (rape, incest and or the life of the

mother is threatened). Except, regarding the whole rape part, House members wanted to change the wording from “rape” to “forcible rape.” Uh, all rape is forced.
