Keep Abortion Funding Out of Health Care

ACT NOW TO INFLUENCE THE HOUSE BEFORE THEY VOTE!

SIGN THE PETITION!

Dear Members of Congress and President Obama:

We understand the tremendous task that lies before you as you try to reform our nation's health care system. While there are many concerns that must be addressed when tackling such a gargantuan task, one such concern is of high importance to over 70 percent of Americans. Under no circumstances should taxpayers contributing to any system give up what they have now, which is a firewall between taxpayer funds and abortion. We urge you to follow the example of the Federal Employee Health Benefits system, which excludes coverage for the induced destruction of unborn human life. Because of the many ways health policy can be crafted to finesse this issue, as happened under the health insurance connector in Massachusetts, our position is explicit: "If the legislation that is put to a vote in Congress does not explicitly exclude abortion, it will unquestionably include it and we will oppose it."

Additionally, no health care reform should force participants to perform or be complicit in actions they find offensive. A right of conscience protects physicians and other health providers from being compelled to do things that violate their religious or moral beliefs.

Thank you for your efforts on this matter, and may God bless the work you do.
