“I’m very pleased to announce that we reached both goals on the same day,” said Dr. Dan Benishek, “We hit our mark of $219,000 on the same day that Bart Stupak announced he would not seek re-election. What a day! I would like to thank my supporters from within the district and across the state and country, who helped us reach two critical goals of this campaign.”
While standing in 30 degree weather in Sault Ste. Marie, waiting for the Tea Party Express, I had the opportunity to ask some of Bart Stupak’s challengers what they thought about the 9-term Congressman’s exit from Congress that day. One of his challengers is Tom Stillings. Born in Massachusetts, Tom is a former steel broker, [...]

The Hyde Amendment right now restricts funding of abortion in any spending bill for Health and Human Services. Since this bill is not a spending bill for Health and Human Services, the Hyde Amendment does not automatically apply. Stupak, through the amendment process, inserted Hyde language in the House bill.
