Hillary Clinton promises to enact the greatest expansion of abortion funding in history

In a nearly hour-long acceptance speech largely excoriating her opponent, Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton promised to enact the largest expansion of taxpayer-funded abortion-on-demand in history.

Wearing an all-white pantsuit, Clinton spent much of her speech telling delegates inside Philadelphia’s Wells Fargo Center that Donald Trump would divide Americans and debuted the slogan, “Stronger Together.”

However, she first had to sew up the rift in her own party between herself and supporters of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders.

She implored his followers to join her campaign in a display of Democratic unity.

“That’s the only way we can turn our progressive platform into real change for America,” she said. “We wrote it together – now let’s go out there and make it happen together!”

The 2016 Democratic Party platform, drafted in concert between Clinton and Sanders delegates, has been described as the most pro-abortion platform in the party’s history.

“We will continue to stand up to Republican efforts to defund Planned Parenthood health centers, which provide critical health services to millions of people,” it says. “We will continue to oppose—and seek to overturn—federal and state laws and policies that impede a woman’s access to abortion, including by repealing the Hyde Amendment,” as well as the Helms Amendment, which protect taxpayers from funding abortion-on-demand in the United States and worldwide, respectfully.

The 2016 Democratic platform upsets some party moderates. President Obama’s former religious outreach director called it “morally reprehensible,” and U.S. Senator Joe Manchin called it “crazy.”
