Read What Tennesseans Are Saying About Universal, Tax-Payer Funded Abortion in Health Care “Reform”
[FPN] – Residents across the state of Tennessee are voicing their opposition to a congressional proposal that would use taxpayer money to pay for abortions under the guise of so-called health care “reform”. Pro-family Tennesseans are signing Family Policy Network’s petition urging both houses of Congress and President Obama to reject health care “reform” that provides universal abortion funding on the backs of American taxpayers.
The text of the petition reads as follows:
Please OPPOSE any and all attempts to include funding and/or mandates for abortions in health care “reform” legislation.
Destroying innocent human life is not “reform” by any means. The Bible clearly states “Thou Shalt Not Murder.” Our nation should not engage in the slaughter of its citizens and I should not be forced to fund it.
Many Tennesseans who signed the petition opposing taxpayer-funded abortion added their own comments to the statement above. Here is a sampling of those comments:
-
- Jeff C. in Hixson, TN writes, “This bill obviously infringes on our freedom of religion. I strongly oppose this bill.”
-
- Denise H. in Collierville, TN writes, “No to all government-run healthcare!”
-
- Linda J. in Lexington, TN writes, “I do not approve of funding abortion.”
-
- Susan B. in Humboldt, TN writes, “It should be clear to everyone that this health reform agenda will kill off half the nation by forcing abortion and by not providing adequate health care to senior. This administration should be ashamed.”
-
- Kenneth and Sonja H. in Lexington, TN write, “Sounds like this health care reform wants to get rid of the elderly and the unborn.”
-
- Yuriy D. in Knoxville, TN writes, “Exclude abortions from the health care coverage.”

-
- Olga D. in Knoxville, TN writes, “Abortions need to be specifically excluded from the coverage by the health care plan.”
-
- Sharon H. in Cordova, TN writes, “God will take away His blessings from us as a nation, if we continue to murder our unborn.”
-
- Philip S. in Tullahoma, TN writes, “Please pray against this legislation and for the lives of the unborn.”
-
- Drucilla W. in Cordova, TN writes, “Please remove any abortion provision from this healthcare bill!”
