HEALTH CARE REFORM SIGNED INTO LAW WILL WIDELY EXPAND ABORTION On March 23, 2010, President Obama signed the most abortion-expansive legislation that ever reached the floor of either house of Congress since Roe v. Wade. This new law will require federal agencies to subsidize and administer health plans that will pay for elective abortion and will undermine pro-life policies in other ways as well. Prior to passage, National Right to Life Legislative Director Douglas Johnson, stated that the bill would allow “…direct federal funding of abortion on demand through Community Health Centers, would institute federal subsidies for private health plans that cover abortion on demand – including some federally administered plans – and would authorize federal mandates that could require even non-subsidized private plans to cover elective abortion.” The executive order that the President signed to supposedly prohibit funding of abortion, cannot amend a bill and the federal courts will enforce what the law says. For the State of Ohio, 13th District Representative Betty Sutton and 9th District Representative Marcy Kaptur both voted for this pro-abortion legislation The Ohio Representatives that voted against it were Jean Schmidt (R-OH-2), Michael Turner (R-OH-3), Jim Jordan (R-OH-4), Robert Latta (R-OH-5), Steve Austria (R-OH-7), John Boehner (R-OH-8), Patrick Tiberi (R-OH-12), Steve LaTourette (R-OH-14) and Zack Space (D-OH-18).
