Health care reform proposal must be stopped dead in its tracks.
Reid Seeks Critical Votes to Bring the Bill to the Senate Floor |

| The health care reform proposal released by Majority Leader Harry Reid last night must be stopped dead in its tracks. His bill would lead to the biggest expansion of abortion in thirty years. Tell your Senator to vigorously oppose Reidcare. The bill is a disgrace and should never be allowed onto the floor of the Senate. Here are a few of its problems: – A public option authorized to use taxpayer dollars to pay for abortions – Taxpayer dollars are poured into health plans that cover elective abortions – No protections for insurance firms not wanting to cover abortions Before the legislation can be debated in the Senate, Harry Reid must marshal 60 votes to oppose a filibuster against the motion to proceed. Tell your Senator to vote against the motion to proceed. The bill is the most vulnerable at this early stage of the legislative process. A recent CNN poll found that 61% of Americans strongly oppose allowing their tax dollars to fund abortions while only 37% supported it. Americans simply do not believe that elected officials should violate the consciences of their taxpaying constituents by forcing them to subsidize abortion on demand. It is critical that you take action today. We need to bury this legislation under an avalanche of constituent objections, so, after writing, convince your friends, family, and coworkers to object as well. You are the key to tapping into that 61% of Americans. The way that we can win this is by sending the deafening objections of the American people to the Senate. Tell your friends to go online to voice their objections: www.sba-list.org/stopreidcare For Life, Marjorie Dannenfelser |
