Last Week in Review
Finally, the pro-life amendment that pro-lifers were waiting for passed with flying colors in the House just before the House health care reform bill barely passed 220-115. As reported earlier tax payer funding of abortion was what was blocking health care reform in the House (see The Two Hang Ups currently blocking passage of health care reform: one in the House and one in the Senate). This health care bill barely passed not because of Republicans but because of disagreements within the Democrat's own party over tax payer funding of abortion. Even though Nancy Pelosi is pro-choice she had to allow a vote on a pro-life amendment which she knew would pass but in order to get the bill passed she had to do it. So far this has been the only bi-partisan support of the Health Care reform bill. The amendment passed 240-194 with 64 democrats agreeing with Republicans that tax payers should not have to fund abortions in health care. According to pro-life Republicans and Democrats alike they are claiming this to be one of the biggest pro-life victories since the partial birth abortion ban law was passed. There is still a long way to go before this health care reform passes. The Senate has to pass there version then it goes to conference to merge and then another vote depending on how that merge goes. In the merge they can take out the amendment but if they do then the bill in its merged entirety will have to be voted on once again. So there is a long way to go. Remember: It ain't over till it's over
