From Cardinal Francis George, Chicago:

“Rep. Hyde was exemplary in defending and protecting the lives of unborn Americans and, through the amendment that bears his name, promoted freedom of conscience for Americans who believed their tax dollars should not contribute to destroying innocent human life.”

From the National Review Editors: The Honorable Mr. Hyde

Again from the NRO Editors last month regarding Hyde’s Presidential Medal of Freedom: Honoring Hyde
