TCC Position on Landtroop Amendment to SB 23
May 26, 2011

The Texas Catholic Conference opposes all state funding to abortion providers and for contraceptive services. For that reason, we are not taking a position on the Landtroop amendment to SB 23, which sets for priorities for how contraceptive funding is distributed.  However, we believe that the perfecting amendment that will be offered in the conference committee is an improvement over current practice.
