Congress continues to debate whether or not to remove taxpayer-funded abortion from ObamaCare. Though a\u00a0pro-life victory<\/a> on the issue was won in the House, defeat is\u00a0almost certain<\/a> in the Senate. \u00a0Meanwhile, Operation Rescue<\/a> has unveiled a new video revealing that Medicaid-funding of expensive late-term abortion continues in many states. The video includes dialogue between an undercover pro-life activist and Southwestern Women’s Options<\/a> (SWO) in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The activist pretended to be a woman who is at 26-weeks<\/a> gestation and is seeking abortion because her husband has lost his job. She is advised by SWO that she can obtain an abortion at no charge through Medicaid and that the procedure’s cost is about $9,000.<\/p>\n
