Dear John,
How would you feel about the possibility of having your taxes raised to help the government pay for abortions?
Well that might just be a reality by the end of August, which is why I need you to act now to stop the biggest attempt to force taxpayer funded abortion on-demand on the American people.
If we do not act today, the lives of thousands of unborn boys and girls will fall prey to abortion courtesy of our pro-abortion Congress and President...using your very own hard-earned tax dollars.
It is a proven fact that taxpayer-funded abortion only serves to increase abortions. Even the other side admits this, saying abortions could increase by 25% among those eligible for government health care, if taxpayers were forced to pay for abortions.
It is quite clear that abortion is NOT health care, yet the other side continues to argue it is.
President Obama has clearly stated that he supports taxpayer-funded abortions as part of his health care reform. In his speech to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund in July of 2008, President Obama said that in his mind "reproductive care is essential care, basic care, so it is at the center, the heart of the [health care] plan that I propose." When asked for clarification later, an Obama spokesman said that "reproductive care included abortion."
In the current House health care reform bill, Nancy Pelosi and her pro-abortion friends have left the door open for Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and her unelected pro-abortion bureaucrats to define abortion as part of "reproductive care," just as Hillary Clinton has already done at the State Department. We cannot allow pro-abortion forces to write abortion into national health care coverage.
And make sure you forward this e-mail to all your friends and family. We need to make sure every voice is heard in this fight.
Thank you for all you do in the fight to protect unborn boys and girls.
For Life,
Marjorie Dannenfelser
