Pro-lifers are being called into action now that the release of the Senate's
misleading version of healthcare reform has been presented.
The Senate version of the legislation is not inclusive of the House's
Stupak-Pitts Amendment, which bans federal funds for abortions. Douglas Johnson,
legislative director of the National Right to Life Committee,
tells OneNewsNow this was done in spite of the fact that several polls indicate
a wide majority of Americans do not want their tax dollars spent on
abortion.
"And that's why the White House and many top congressional Democrats
like [Senator] Harry Reid and [Speaker of the House] Nancy Pelosi are trying so
desperately to disguise what they're doing," Johnson explains. He says they are
"trying to conceal these pro-abortion provisions behind layers of misleading,
convoluted language and rhetoric."
( I for sure am going to be watching how my Democrat Sen. Ben Nelson votes. Anyone who votes for this health care bill can no longer say they are pro life. Obama told us abortion would not be covered in government health care. What changed Mr. President? Read more on this issue Abortion coverage a major sticking
point.)
