Surprise: Senate Health Care Bill Would Cover Abortion

During the August recess Senator Kent Conrad was here in North Dakota telling constituents that he wouldn’t support a health care bill that included tax payer funding for abortion. Well, surprise! The much-hyped health care bill being touted by Senators Kent Conrad and Max Baucus will, in fact, use taxpayer dollars to pay for abortion.

Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, has released a proposal for health-care reform. It specifically allows for taxpayer funded abortions.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Baucus said it was a unique moment in history.
“The Finance Committee has carefully worked through the details of health-care reform,” he said, “to ensure this package works for patients, for health-care providers and for our economy.”
However, under the Baucus bill:
* $6 billion would go for health insurance cooperatives, which would be permitted to cover abortion.
* Abortions permitted under the Hyde Amendment would be mandated under the minimum benefits package. The Hyde Amendment taxpayer-funded abortions in cases of rape, incest or to save the life of the mother.
* Tax credits and cost-sharing credits could be re-labeled to pay for abortion under private premiums.

Another day, another lie from the Democrats about their plans from health care revealed.

    Its time to re-examine instant citizenship (Anchor babies) which hasn’t been illuminated enough, to growing concern of the American public. For decades now pregnant women have arrived on tourist’s visas, through the fence and even at ports of call. Very aware of our mis-interpreted law governing “birthright citizenship”, that attributes full rights to the Mother of an illegal immigrant. How can Americans benefit from this Health care reform package, when we must subsidize millions of households and not just the original interloper? Outlined in the spring issue of the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons is an article that will stun a prudent person. An illegal alien entered the states in 1997 to work as a fruit picker, bringing with him his wife and three children; all illegal aliens.

    The lady gave birth to a fourth child, and with that birth the family had an “anchor baby”–an American citizen by birth, who provided the entire family with a free pass to remain in the United States permanently and collect government, subsides. Unfortunately the baby was born prematurely, spent three months in the neonatal incubator, and cost the San Joaquin Hospital more than $300,000. Meanwhile, the oldest daughter married an illegal alien and gave birth to her own anchor baby, and then the wife gave birth to yet another baby. ALL PAID FOR BY–YOU!

    This is just one taxpayer example of the ‘Rule of law’ that has cost taxpayers billions of dollars. A nurse admitted last weekend, according to Review-Journal reported that cash-strapped UMC hospital in Nevada is providing more than $20 million a year in emergency dialysis care for uninsured, illegal immigrants. Is American society insane when poverty stricken Americans are turned away, go bankrupt and sometimes die? TAXPAYERS ARE TAXED FOR THIS, BUT NOT FOR OUR OWN PEOPLE? We must insist that a Birthright Citizenship lawsuit be filed with the federal court and its original intent revisited? That E-Verify should be fully funded and a highly skilled MIT team, building on the original Immigration enforcement database to a highest level of security that cannot be compromised by the use of fraudulent documents.

    The PC oriented application must be installed permanently on every business computer across this country? ICE should have the manpower to audit every workplace, with the power to arrest and detain employers who snub immigration laws? Repeat offenders should be dealt with harshly, including prison and confiscation of business assets. There should be no mitigating excuses because illegal immigrants are–STEALING JOBS– on any rung of the employment ladder? These employers for years have been an intended magnet for destitute labor in many cases, but have left the burden of paying for schooling for the children, health care and a veiled miscellaneous core of government handouts to US taxpayers. THIS IS NOT ABOUT RACISM, BUT AN ULTIMATE FINANCIAL MATTER OF SURVIVAL FOR US ALL! Coincidentally, I want a government health care, specially for some low income American family members.

    Insist your politicians guarantee E-Verify is fully funded and is not scuttled by Sen. Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Janet Napolitano or any other high ranking Democrats. The Washington switchboard has their number at 202-224-3121. Research these laws, true facts and incredulous stats at NUMBERSUSA & JUDICIAL WATCH
