Powerful abortion industry lobbyists and Washington bureaucrats have justlaunched a massive effort to mandate taxpayer-funded abortions as part oftheir proposed trillion-dollar healthcare takeover.

With this power grab, the abortion industry and its political allies intendto:

* Force taxpayers to fund a huge abortion-industry bailout --something the majority of Americans oppose, and certainly cannot afford inthese tough economic times

* Mandate that virtually every American be forced into a health planthat includes abortion coverage

* Require honorable medical providers to violate their consciences andperform abortions -- or risk losing their jobs

* Impose one of the cornerstones of the<http://action.aul.org/site/R?i=2LNEonD4477rWnoXsquVdg..> "Freedom of ChoiceAct" (FOCA) by stealth

The New York Times just ran a prominent<http://action.aul.org/site/R?i=G7AaStZv19Fs4oZIrV-Okg..> story confirmingthat an "administration official refused Sunday to rule out the possibilitythat federal tax money might be used to pay for abortions under proposedhealth care legislation.

"Put bluntly, these proposed measures could lead to the largest abortionexpansion since Roe v. Wade.

This abortion mandate must be stopped.
