“Democrats don’t want to talk about abortion rights, but it could sink health reform,” according to a Congress Daily report today.
As we (and many other outlets) have been reporting since last week, abortion is coming back on the radar of House leaders since Congressman Bart Stupak (D-MI) is doing everything he can to make sure his amendment gets a vote on the floor. His amendment simply reads that no government money would fund abortions.
What’s so bad about that, Speaker Pelosi? A lot – many Democrats, including President Obama himself, seriously owe the abortion industry for their support and donations and what better way to pay them back than to make sure the government funds abortions.
It’s crucial to call your elected Representatives at this time and tell them you want to make sure abortion funding is not included in healthcare reform and that the Stupak amendment gets a floor vote.
