The leftists have been hoping people don't read the various Health Care bills Congress is putting out, ever since they first started trying to craft thousand-plus page bills and voting on them all in two weeks, removing requirements that they be published on the internet for public examination before the vote, etc.

And now we're starting to find out why, as unsavory details start surfacing.

Speaker Pelosi’s Government-Run Health Plan Will Require a Monthly Abortion Premium

November 5th, 2009

Health care reform should not be used as an opportunity to use federal funds to pay for elective abortions. Health reform should be an opportunity to protect human life - not end it.

Unfortunately, Speaker Pelosi’s 2,032-page government takeover of health care does just that. On line 17, p. 110, section 222 under “Abortions for which Public Funding is Allowed” the Health and Human Services Secretary is given the authority to determine when abortion is allowed under the government-run plan. The Speaker’s plan also requires that at least one insurance plan offered in the Exchange covers abortions.

A monthly abortion premium will be charged of all enrollees in the government-run plan. It’s right there on line 16, page 96, section 213, under “Insurance Rating Rules.”
