Wisconsin Right to Life News release:

“First it was the Associated Press, then FactCheck.org and now Time Magazine. All of them agree with  the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), Wisconsin Right to Life (WRTL) and other leading right-to-life organizations  that  the health care bills backed by the Obama White House will result in government funding of abortion,” said Susan Armacost, Legislative Director of Wisconsin Right to Life.”

Couple of good articles you should read about the current health care bill; 

‘Death Panel’ is not in the (Healthcare)bill… it already exists
 
…and
“Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effectiveness Research Membership”

Recieved the following information from a Brother Knight:

Dear Brother Knights:

As you know, I care greatly about the pro-life issue.  Right now, Congress is considering various health care reform proposals that could force insurance companies to cover abortion and make you and I pay for them with our tax dollars.

I just sent a letter to my Members of Congress asking that they vote against any reform bill that would cover abortion or force us to pay for them.  Can you help me by making your voice heard too?

Americans United for Life Action (www.aul.org) has set up a website that makes it easy to send a brief note to your Representative and Senators.  They even have a sample letter ready to go if you don’t want to write one yourself.  Just follow this link to send your note.

1) www.aul.org
2) Click on “Take Action” link
3) Under Critical Alerts, click on “Take Abortion Out of Health Care” and then fill in the forms.
