House Health Care Bill Has Death Panels, Assisted Suicide Promotion

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- The new House health care reform bill unveiled last week by Speaker Nancy Pelosi contains more than the controversial "death panels" panned in the previous legislation. The new bill, H.R. 3962, contains direct taxpayer-funded promotion of assisted suicide in the states where it is currently legal.

shhh - the brainwashed sheeple aren't supposed to find out the truth...

Pro-abortion politicians have made numerous misleading claims about abortion in health care. Twice in recent weeks, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs has insisted to reporters that the Hyde Amendment is sufficient to prevent federal funds from subsidizing abortion. As the group that defended the Hyde Amendment before the U.S. Supreme Court in 1980, Americans United for Life knows well that the Hyde Amendment will not prevent abortion funding through the current health care proposals. Fortunately, the disinformation campaign in the mainstream media was shattered last week when Associated Press began reporting the truth about the Hyde Amendment:

"Currently a law called the Hyde amendment bars federal funding for abortion - except in cases of rape and incest or if the mother's life would be endangered - and applies those restrictions to Medicaid, forcing states that cover abortion for low-income women to do so with their own money. Separate laws apply the restrictions to the federal employee health plan and military and other programs.

But the Democrats' health overhaul bill would create a new stream of federal funding not covered by the restrictions."
