Douglas Johnson, legislative director for the National Right to Life Committee, said this regarding the health care bill unveiled today by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA): "A vote for this bill is a vote to establish a federal government program that will directly fund abortion on demand, with federal funds." He referred specifically to language on page 110 of the new bill (H.R. 3962) which explicitly authorizes the "public health insurance option" to pay for all elective abortions. The "public health insurance option" or "public plan" would be a health insurance program operated directly by the federal government, through the Department of Health and Human Services. NRLC
