| Latest Post: Started By: Rank: Category govenment take over of insurance and health care by dems?A bill was introduced in the House of Representatives this week that would make permanent policies that deny abortion coverage to women who depend on the federal government for their health care and that would also extend such unjust prohibitions into the private sector. The bill, introduced by Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ), would effectively eliminate insurance coverage for abortion. Currently, a majority of insurance plans offer abortion coverage. At the press conference unveiling the bill, Speaker John Boehner stated that the bill would be "one of [the House of Representatives'] highest legislative priorities."

This bill is an insidious and unprecedented attempt to destroy the insurance market for abortion c Member CommentsNo comments posted for this topic. Post a Comment |
