Today, women forgo food, risk eviction and pawn their possessions as they attempt to raise money for an abortion. Some are forced to continue the pregnancy, abandon their education and stay trapped in poverty. What is the Hyde Amendment? Women face these difficult situations because the government denies abortion funding to women in need. The Hyde — 30 Years Is Enough! Campaign The National Network of Abortion Funds (NNAF) — a network of grassroots groups that help women and girls pay for abortions — has joined with other groups to launch the Hyde — 30 Years is Enough! Campaign. We call for full public funding of abortion as a part of comprehensive health care for all, and support for low-income women to care for their children with dignity. We stand
for reproductive justice, a world in which all women have the power and
resources necessary to make healthy decisions about their bodies and their
families.
