July 2021 – The “Pro-Life Evangelicals for Biden” movement might be surprised to hear that Biden is now funding abortion at a level 19 times higher than that of President Barack Obama. The Biden administration used the $1.9 trillion “COVID-19 relief package” to funnel roughly $467.8 billion into abortion and abortion businesses including Planned Parenthood, according to Family Research Council (FRC). 

“By comparison, in President Obama’s first 100 days, he had signed a stimulus bill that included $24.7 billion in subsidies for employer-sponsored plans that cover abortion,” reported FRC.

In addition to Biden’s $467.8 billion, FRC stated, “President Biden has also funded abortion and abortion businesses by delivering [an additional] $12.1 billion through executive actions.”

FRC president Tony Perkins summarized the president’s abortion advocacy: “President Biden has forced taxpayers back into a partnership with the abortion industry – both at home and abroad, [and] he has made clear that he places no value on the inherent dignity of human life.”
