Pro-life Senators to begin discussing pro-abortion provisions in Reid Bill at 1:00 p.m. EST

by Mary Harned on November 21, 2009

Tune in to C-SPAN 2 at 1:00 p.m. EST to hear pro-life Senators discuss the pro-abortion provisions in Majority Leader Reid’s health care reform bill. 

Remember, the Reid bill:

  1. Allows the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services to require coverage of any and all abortions through the public option.
  2. Creates new federally-funded subsidies for private health plans that cover abortion.
  3. Requires every insurance market to include a private plan that covers abortion.  
  4. Fails to sufficiently protect health care entities from discrimination on the basis that the health care entity does not provide, pay for, provide coverage of, or refer for abortions.
  5. Fails to prohibit federal funding of assisted suicide.
