Chapter and Verse: How PelosiCare pays for abortionsPosted by: Thomas Peters in APP Blog Tagged in: nancy pelosi , health care

House Republican Leader Boehner's team quotes the specifics:
Health care reform should not be used as an opportunity to use federal funds to pay for elective abortions. Health reform should be an opportunity to protect human life - not end it.
Unfortunately, Speaker Pelosi’s 2,032-page government takeover of health care does just that. On line 17, p. 110, section 222 under “Abortions for which Public Funding is Allowed” the Health and Human Services Secretary is given the authority to determine when abortion is allowed under the government-run plan. The Speaker’s plan also requires that at least one insurance plan offered in the Exchange covers abortions.
What is even more alarming is that a monthly abortion premium will be charged of all enrollees in the government-run plan. It’s right there on line 16, page 96, section 213, under “Insurance Rating Rules.” The premium will be paid into a U.S. Treasury account - and these federal funds will be used to pay for the abortion services.

I will never agree to funding abortion. People need to take responsiblity for their actions. What has become of us that we no longer value human life?
Such a sad state of affairs.
