Americans United for Life: Critical House Vote on Pro-Abortion Health Care Bill This Week

Tuesday 3rd of November 2009 14:23

-- Score Letter to Congress: A letter sent by AUL Action to members of the House of Representatives states that if the Stupak-Pitts amendment to remove abortion funding is not given a vote under the Rule governing Floor debate on the House bill, AUL Action will oppose the Rule and record the roll call vote on the Rule in our annual scorecard. Furthermore, if the final language of the bill does not adequately meet any of AUL Action's concerns expressed in our letter, AUL Action will oppose final passage of the bill and will record the roll call vote on final passage in our annual scorecard as well.

Americans United for Life is the first national pro-life organization in America. In 1980, AUL successfully defended the Hyde Amendment before the U.S. Supreme Court in Harris v. McRae. AUL's legislative arm AUL Action recently met with the White House to discuss abortion funding and coverage in health care. Visit AUL Action's RealHealthCareRespectsLife.com, for background from our legal team about the current health care reform bills threat to the right to life and rights of conscience.
