The Stupak Amendment Would Prevent Coverage of Abortions with Private Insurance Plans

Abortion is not healthcare, it's murder.

Repent and stop killing innocent babies.

This fella is smoking crack. If ANYBODY BUYS INSURANCE from an exchange, the sole purpose they are able to do so and allegedly pay $100 per month for coverage for the same policy that would cost $300 under Humana, this is ALREADY SUBSIDIZED! Tax dollars are precisely what is providing for the exchange to exist.

Funny, taxpayers don't have a "choice" on whether or not to pay for it. But now liberals selectively care about privacy and "choice" with regard to this one issue?

Typical.

The exchange could have a plan that covers abortion although that plan would not be available to anyone who is purchasing with taxpayer funds.

Also a person can buy rider insurance just for abortions.

Finally, less than 10% of abortions right now are paid for with personal insurance. That is at least what a Michigan state school study released earlier this year found for Michigan.

10% of the women who get abortions through private insurance not being able to unless they pay out of pocket instead of through insurance (which is what it's for!) are still 10% of women having their choice revoked and having the government decide and limit the medical decisions they can make about their own bodies and lives.

[IssuesAndJustice]

Private medical insurance is not impacted. Only insurance plans that are being purchased with public funds.

Also, insurance riders specifically for abortion can be purchased.

Also, it is scientifically incorrect to say that this argument is just about a women's body unless she has 4 eyes, 2 noses, and possible 2 blood types and genders during pregnancy. She has ANOTHER body...for ANOTHER human.
