House Dems to push Pelosi for vote on bill that would allow federal funding of abortion
By Jessie Hellmann - 03/12/19 01:19 PM EDT

Abortion rights leaders in Congress will ask House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to hold a vote on a bill that would allow federal funding of abortion.

The bill would repeal a long-standing ban on abortion coverage in federal health programs like Medicaid.

"It's just important as we move forward that we pass legislation that honors women's reproductive health and their decisions rather than punishing poor women and federal employees," said Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Colo.), a sponsor of the bill and co-chair of the Congressional Pro-Choice Caucus.

We already fund abortion Federally.  Planned Parenthood is fully funded.  But abortion is not health care.  Its death care.
