If any one is opposed to Abortion they should be wary of House Bill 3200 (National Healthcare). The bill does not contain language that authorizes the payment to physicians who provide abortion services. A Republican amendment to the bill that would have expressly forbid payment for abortions was removed by liberals during committee meetings. A Liberal Congresswoman “assured” one of her constituents that abortions would not be paid for. If this were true why would the amendment been excluded from the bill? If abortions are not going to be funded leave the amendment in. Many Americans do not realize $400 million of taxpayer money is already spent on abortions performed in foreign countries. This was a practice supported by President Clinton but discontinued when George W. Bush became president. Re-instating this policy was one of the first actions President Obama took when he assumed office. If our Leaders support overseas abortions with our tax money why would they not support abortions within our borders. Recent polls have demonstrated the majority of Americans now oppose abortion. Our Leaders should respect the will of the majority. The amendment to not pay for abortions should be included in any and all health related legislation.
