Keep Abortion Out of Health Care
The U.S. Senate and U.S. House committees
are presently working on health care reform
packages including various amendments that
will directly affect both abortion and rationing
of health care. National proabortion groups
see this legislation as an opportunity to
mandate abortion and abortion funding. Please
contact your two U.S. Senators, Carl Levin
and Debbie Stabenow, and your U.S. House
member. The message to be conveyed is that
abortion and abortion funding must be "explicitly
excluded" from any health care/insurance
reform legislation. To learn more and for
Congressional contact information, visit
Right to Life of Michigan at www.rtl.org
or call the Right to Life of Michigan State
Central Office at (616) 532-2300.
