Administration seeks abortion compromise
The Clinton administration moves toward a compromise on abortion benefits within a national health care plan. Panetta said the plan should provide choice and not impose a single approach, with Congress to craft a framework allowing individual decisions. Opposition exists from some lawmakers who oppose taxpayer funding, while a Senate plan would allow religious or moral exemptions. Dole said he would oppose including abortion benefits in reform.
