Abortion curb bill defeated in California Senate panel
In Sacramento the Senate Health and Welfare Committee rejected a measure by Sen. John L. Harmer to restrict Medi Cal funded abortions. A Medi Cal administrator testified abortions under the program rose sharply, with 22 000 legal abortions in 1970. The bill would have barred Medi Cal abortions for recipients of aid to families with dependent children solely due to pregnancy.
