President Trump and congressional leaders reached a sweeping bipartisan budget on Monday to suspend the debt ceiling and increase federal spending limits. Fiscal hawks concerned with unmanageable government spending are right to be concerned. But the budget, which awaits congressional approval, does offer an important victory: It protects the Hyde Amendment and strips abortion providers, like Planned Parenthood, of federal Title X funding.

The budget shows Trump is serious about prioritizing pro-life policies. If Congress passes the agreement, Democrats’ hands will be tied when it comes to important policy priorities like repealing the Hyde Amendment, a law that prohibits using federal funds for abortion. This is a serious blow to Democrats who have relied on “poison pill” riders to strip the pro-life movement of legislative authority.
