Contact: Day Gardner, Director Public Relations, NPLAC, 202-834-0844, dgardner@nplr.net
MEDIA ADVISORY, Nov. 30 /Standard Newswire/ -- The pro-life movement has lost a true pioneer who was deeply committed to defending and protecting the humanity of the unborn child. He was a stalwart, unflinching champion of the pro-life movement and will be remembered for his introduction and sponsorship of the Hyde Amendment which prohibits federal funding of abortion. Mr. Hyde made a substantial contribution to the awareness of the plight of the unborn and I would hope that members of Congress will follow his courageous lead.
