  • ON, D.C., October 12, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) – President Barack  Obama has promised to veto a bill strongly backed by pro-life leaders as a  last-ditch effort to dodge the potentially massive expansion of abortion under  the new federal healthcare reform law. Majority Leader Eric Cantor announced last week that the  Protect Life Act, H.R.  358, will be considered in the House of Representatives on Thursday. The  measure would amend President Obama’s Affordable Care Act to reflect the Hyde  amendment by prohibiting taxpayer dollars from funding any health plan that  includes coverage of elective abortions. The measure retains Hyde’s exception  for abortions performed due to the child’s conception in rape or incest or to  save the mother’s life.

     The bill also makes clear that no health insurance carrier may  be forced to provide coverage of abortion in any of its health plans, and  strengthens the conscience rights of health care workers and institutions to  reject abortion training, procedures, or referrals.
