Obamacare Will Pay for Abortions
The health care legislation currently in Congress covers abortions, and anti-abortion groups are gearing up for a big fight.
“We want to see people who have no health insurance get it, but this is a sticking point,” said Richard Doerflinger, associate director of pro-life activities for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. “We don’t want health care reform to be the vehicle for mandating abortion.” The church can’t accept a public plan that covers abortion, he said.
Operation Rescue founder Randall Terry has threatened “random acts of violence” and “reprisals against individuals guilty of pushing this tyranny,” if the legislation passes in this form.
