House Republicans push tax code to curb abortions
The House Ways and Means Committee will vote on a bill to bar deducting abortion costs from taxable income and block tax credits in the new health care law from funding policies that cover abortion. Exceptions exist for rape or incest or when a physician warns a life is at risk. Federal funding limits mirror the bill’s exceptions. Supporters cite a need to prevent taxpayer funds from subsidizing abortion. opponents warn the proposal fights an established reform.
