Big Wins for Families in Washington: Here’s What Just Happened

We’ve got some important updates from Washington, D.C.—and for once, they’re actually good news. In a time when legislative victories have been rare, this past week brought a wave of momentum for families, children, and values we all care deeply about.

None of this would have happened without your prayers, your votes, and your willingness to stay engaged. So let’s take a moment to celebrate a few key wins.

The “Take It Down Act” Is Headed to the President’s Desk

This is a major step forward in protecting kids online.

The Take It Down Act, which targets the non-consensual sharing of explicit images—including AI-generated “deepfake” pornography—has passed both the House and the Senate. Originally introduced by Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), this bill has been years in the making. It came close to passing last year, but with renewed advocacy and support—including a public endorsement from First Lady Melania Trump—it’s now on its way to the President’s desk.

Our team has been a strong supporter of this bill from the beginning. We’ve even been invited to the White House to witness the signing ceremony on Monday, May 19. We’ll be sharing behind-the-scenes photos and video afterward, so keep an eye out.

Defunding Big Abortion Is One Step Closer

On Sunday night, the House Energy and Commerce Committee released the latest version of its budget bill—and it includes language that would defund Big Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood.

This is a major milestone and something we’ve worked toward for years. But the job isn’t done yet. The bill still has to pass both chambers of Congress. That’s why we’re asking you to help us finish the fight. Call your representatives today at (202) 224-3121 and let them know you support defunding Big Abortion in this reconciliation package.

Help Not Harm Provision Added

Here’s another important win for protecting kids.

Every House committee has been working on their piece of the government funding plan. In the Energy and Commerce Committee’s version, a key provision was added that ends Medicaid reimbursements for underage gender-transition procedures.

This aligns with the Help Not Harm model we’ve been championing for years. It removes financial incentives for medically transitioning minors and ensures taxpayer dollars aren’t funding irreversible medical interventions on children.

Child Tax Credit Increase

Support for working families also made it into the House Ways and Means Committee’s version of the bill. Their proposal includes an extension and increase of the Child Tax Credit—from $2,000 to $2,500 per child.

This is a practical, meaningful step forward for parents trying to make ends meet, and we’re glad to see lawmakers prioritizing families in this way.

What’s Next?

There’s still work to do, but the progress we’ve seen is encouraging. These victories remind us that engagement matters—and that change is possible.

We’ll continue keeping you updated as these measures move forward. Thank you for standing with us as we fight for family, faith, and freedom.
