Update on Obamacare

Well, it’s been a while since we’ve posted on here.

However, things happen whether people report them or not. Just today LifeNews posted an article about the status of the healthcare bill. As stated in the article, 60/100 votes are needed in the Senate and a majority of Representatives (218 since there are 435 total).

And it’s borderline.

So the question is, will funding of abortions make it into healthcare?

This is a difficult question to answer, as those favoring abortion-funded healthcare must consider if they can keep abortion yet still maintain enough votes. Bart Stupak, who fought for and successfully amended the House bill to exclude monetary provision for abortion with the exception of physical danger to the mother, says he and a small group of Democrats will oppose healthcare if his amendment does not survive to the final version.

Already the vote will be close; but will the Senate’s provision for abortions or the House’s Stupak Amendment make it into the final bill? Only God knows, so please, remember that the Voiceless covet your prayers.
