Senate Bill Does Not Include Stupak Language on Abortion

By on 11.18.09 @ 6:18PM

The Hill reports that Harry Reid has modified the language concerning taxpayer funding for abortion in the Senate bill, but that he has avoided the Stupak language that was essential to getting legislation approved in the House.

The article quotes Sen. Ben Nelson, who said that Reid assured him that his concerns about abortion financing would be addressed, but that he had not yet seen the modified language himself.
