41 Democrats Sign Letter Stating They Will Not Vote for Conference Bill Containing Stupak Amendment

Ah... okay. But they also said they wouldn't vote for a bill that didn't contain abortion-funding, and they just did that.

Ultimately they will pass the bill without the amendment and the supposed pro-life Democrats will just say "We don't need to deal with this yet, it will be years before the plan is actually implemented, we will work on improving the bill until then."

And then they won't. Or they'll take a bunch of votes that go nowhere, just to get it on the record "they tried."


Susan Collins Opposes: She finds the Stupak language too tough for her liking and prefers some kind of convoluted dodge that ultimately allows fungible dollars to be used for abortions.
