Members of the U.S. Senate Financial Services Committee will be voting on amendments which would keep abortion coverage out of the health-care bill.
Sen. Max Baucus’s, D-Mont., proposed health-care bill includes specific language that would allow abortion to be subsidized with taxpayer funds.
Recently, Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, has introduced several amendments that would prevent any government funding of abortions and protect current conscience laws for health care workers.
FRC Action has released a call to action asking constituents to contact Finance Committee members today and urge them to support the Hatch amendments.
