Thanks to President Obama Federal Abstinence Education Funding Expires Today

Thanks to President Obama Federal Abstinence Education Funding Expires Today

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Today marked the end of federal funding of abstinence education under the Title V Abstinence Education Program and the CBAE (Community Based Abstinence Education). Before he took over the White House, President Barack Obama made it clear he would cut abstinence funding.

In Obama's FY 2010 Proposed Budget, the president called for eliminating the funding for abstinence education, which has been successful in helping teenagers make positive decisions.

Instead, Obama called for at least $164 million in funding for contraceptive-only education, which will likely go to pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood.

For those of you who voted for Obama because McCain wasn't pro-life enough, this is what you voted for.
