Final Health Care Reform Bill

The current Democratic plan to pass health care reform involves the House passage of the Senate health care reform bill, with the understanding among the Democratic leaders that a follow-up attachment to the bill containing agreed-upon changes will be passed under the reconciliation process. This process, which was instituted to prevent a minority of Senators from stalling the passage of legislation necessary to reconcile the budget, does away with the filibuster by limiting the time allowed for debate, and requires only a majority vote. By assigning budget specifications regarding health care issues to different committees, the Democratic leadership hopes to pass their bill under budget reconciliation without Republican interference. According to thehill.com, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (Nevada) said the final Democratic bill will probably be unveiled Monday night.

So where does this leave the issue of abortion funding in health care reform? The Senate health care reform bill provides for government funding of abortion. President Obama has expressed his disagreement with the House's Stupak Amendment that prohibits government funding of abortion. It is highly unlikely that President Obama, who made this final Democratic health care reform bill a top priority, has agreed to prohibit federal funding of abortion. If our government begins funding abortion in our nation, the incident of abortion will rise dramatically. Please pray that God will not let our country force its citizens to pay for the extermination of its own babies.

May God have mercy on our nation.
