Default Why is NARAL screaming about HR3 if Obamacare never covered abortion?

Well, that's a danged good question. Isn't it?

FoxNews.com - 'ObamaCare' Repeal Fight Reignites Abortion Debate

Quote:
In the weeks to come, a bi-partisan coalition in the House -- led by Rep. Joe Pitts (R-Pa.) and Rep. Dan Lipinski (D-Ill.) -- will introduce a measure that would codify an all-out ban on federal funding for abortion costs or coverage.

Pro-life advocates say they'll be watching closely.

"This is the first opportunity to make good on the promises that so many new members of Congress made," Dannenfelser said. "80 of 87 new members are strongly pro-life."

Pro-life advocates want to know why pro-choice groups won't agree to codify language specifically banning any federal funding for abortion -- since they argue that is already the case.

"The tipoff is that NARAL and Planned Parenthood are screaming now," Dannenfelser said. “They don't want statutory language in this health care bill prohibiting abortion."

And here I thought all those new Republican members were supposed to be concerned about deficits and fiscal issues...isn't that what all those "promises" were supposed to be about

Government funded abortions are a fiscal issue.

But why should Republicans abandon social issues most Americans agree with?

Who told them they have to do that?

I recall mantra after mantra....this election is about the economy, the deficit and Big Government...oooops

Big government EXCEPT when dealing with our social conservative agenda. Just goes to show that the economy was a Trojan Horse.

Who's this "most Americans"?

The health care bill is about deficits and fiscal issues, and conservatives were opposed to the health care bill covering abortion from its inception. This isn't anything new.
