“Federal taxpayer subsidies are helping pay for over 1,000 health plans that cover abortion on demand, and today’s Supreme Court decision underscores that only Congress can put a stop to that,” said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life.
Pro-Life Groups Call for Bill to Ban Abortion Funding After Supreme Court Upholds Obamacare
After the Supreme Court issued a ruling upholding the federal subsidies in Obamacare, pro-life groups are calling on Congress to pass a pro-life bill that would ban all abortion funding, including the massive abortion-funding under the Obamacare law.
In a major victory for the Obama administration, the Supreme Court has issued its second major decision up-holding abortion-funding Obamacare. The Supreme Court has upheld a key provision of ObamaCare today in their decision in King v. Burwell, ruling that millions of Americans can continue to receive taxpayer subsidies to allow them to purchase health care plans under Obamacare.
Under Obamacare, over 1,000 plans eligible for federal subsidies currently cover elective abortion. That, pro-life groups say, underscores the need for the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act, a Congressional bill that would zero out abortion funding under Obamacare.
