In June of last year, Hogue <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prochoiceamerica.org\/2019\/06\/05\/biden-hyde-support\/\">stated<\/a>, \u201cThere\u2019s no political or ideological excuse for Joe Biden\u2019s support for the Hyde Amendment, which translates into discrimination against poor women and women of color plain and simple.\u201d She continued, \u201cHis position further endangers women and families already facing enormous hurdles and creates two classes of rights for people in this country, which is inherently undemocratic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/biden-agenda-women-abortion-taxpayer-dollars\/\">Biden\u2019s \u2018Agenda for Women\u2019: Funding more abortion with taxpayer dollars<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After NARAL\u2019s rebuke and criticism from other pro-abortion groups, Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MeetThePress\/status\/1136811730976235520?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1137011987332734979%7Ctwgr%5E&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.liveaction.org%2Fnews%2Fjoe-biden-healthcare-abortions-frequent-dangerous%2F\">reversed the position<\/a> he had held for decades and is now campaigning on repealing the Hyde Amendment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GlfqAPTihRc\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s support for the Hyde Amendment is not the only place where he has differed from NARAL\u2019s public policy positions.

In 2003, for example, Biden received a score of 36. In 2003, Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncregister.com\/daily-news\/joe-biden-endorsed-by-pro-abortion-naral\">voted in favor<\/a> of the federal partial-birth abortion ban, which outlaws a particularly inhumane and gruesome late-term abortion technique.<\/p>\n<p>As political commentators have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncregister.com\/daily-news\/joe-biden-endorsed-by-pro-abortion-naral\">noted<\/a>, NARAL\u2019s endorsement of Biden signifies Biden\u2019s increasingly strong support for pro-abortion positions.
