Tata feel free to use this thread as a platform. Did you want to kill the bill altogether? <br /><br />Also some of the sources I link talk about an "extra check" barrier to abortion coverage. That is not going to be an issue for those of US (meaning me) on medicaid. Poor women are denied access to abortion services and always have been as far as the government is concerned since Hyde and before when abortion was "illegal" but always available if you had the dough. <br /><br />This bill does, with increased Medicaid coverage and access to community health centers increase the ability of poor women to reproductive health services not including abortion, whether the Catholic bishops like it or not. <br /><br />Again, I'd love to hear whether you wanted to kill the bill rather than give Stupak so little for all his trouble (death threats now from his own people? wow). And I also know that this has shined a spotlight on the Hyde Amendment so that NOW is planning a campaign to rescind it, which I'm sure we agree would be a good thing.Fran / Blue Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18293627981248346055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8983386.post-46904206861534276102010-03-24T20:20:05.717-05:002010-03-24T20:20:05.717-05:00Fran, this has nothing to do with my cred or me.
