Plan should not include tax dollars for abortions

On August 27, 2009
James Pawlak, West Allis

To the editor:

I understand that Mr. Obama’s “health care plan” includes the mandatory use of tax dollars for abortions-upon-demand. This is NOT an acceptable provision for many (perhaps a majority) of Americans, including this voting citizen and everyone I can contact.

I suggest that the political future of Democrats and their party will heavily depend on eliminating that provision and their actual reading of the enabling legislation to determine if there are any like attacks on the moral and ethical sensibilities of so many of our citizens.

James Pawlak, West Allis
