Go, Senate!
“The Senate on Tuesday rejected an effort to tighten restrictions against using federal funds for abortion under Democrats’ landmark healthcare legislation, handing a victory to abortion-rights advocates but setting up a potential conflict with the House.” Link: LA Times.
Abortion is a legal procedure in this country. To say that the government won’t fund it under the new health care system because of certain people’s moralities is repugnant, and would affect poor people—but not rich ones that could afford a private doctor. Kudos to the Senate for standing up for what’s right.
