Family Life

10.12.11 | Sarah Harnisch

There is an extremely important pro-life vote coming up in Congress this week; the biggest vote in nearly 40 years. Obamacare could possibly be the biggest expansion of abortion in the United States since Roe Versus Wade in 1973. It has the potential of funneling hundreds of millions of dollars into abortion businesses - using our tax dollars. But there is an effort to stop it. A group of congressman have introduced the Protect Life Act-- and it's up for a vote in the House on Thursday. It would make it illegal for taxpayer dollars to fund abortion or abortion insurance coverage. It would also protect health care providers who refuse to participate in anortions, and keep them from loosing their jobs. American Centers for Law and Justice Chief Counsel Jay Sekulow says it directly attacks several provisions in Obama's new healthcare plan-- and would make them illegal. If you want to write to your congressman in support of this bill, go here.
