ObamaCare = Coerced Abortions
Health care bill that funds abortion
and rations care will lead to women being coerced into abortions
Today Concerned Women for America will join in a press conference on
health care with numerous groups including Focus on the Family Action,
National Right to Life, and Family Research Council as well as
Representatives Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina,) Tom Price (R-Georgia)
and Eric Cantor (R-Virginia.) The press conference will be held in the
House Triangle.
"Women are generally the primary decision-makers in the family when it
comes to health care. However, our ability to make health care
decisions will be snatched away and given to bureaucrats empowered to
ration care and pay for abortion," stated Wendy Wright, President of
Concerned Women for America.
"The current bill sets up a system whereby bureaucrats decide what
health care we can receive, with cost as a major factor. It also will
fund abortion. Since abortion costs less than prenatal care, delivery
and post-natal care, especially if the mother or child has special
needs, it is not unlikely that bureaucrats will put on their green-eye
shades and decide that abortion will be covered but expensive maternal
and child care is not.
"Amendments to ensure access to health benefits regardless of age,
expected length of life or disability were defeated along party lines.
This means that the most vulnerable -- unborn and premature babies, and
those with special needs -- will be discriminated against if this bill
passes.
"This bill gives czar-like power to Health and Human Services Secretary
Kathleen Sebelius, who has a history of siding with abortionists over
women. President Obama's appointees who have little regard for
the
value of life are far less qualified than mothers to make health
decisions for our families."
