The legislation of priority GOP, "No tax payer funding of abortion Act", House Passes

With 16 Democrats and Republican unanimously, the House is one of his pieces of priority legislation: H.R. 3, the "no tax payer funding to the law on abortion."

Apart from federal funding for abortion services grants, the Bill is redundant under the Hyde Amendment; It is currently prohibited, as it has been for three decades, federal funds appropriate for abortion services. But, in to eradicate coverage for abortion services, Bill is a new impair reproduction rights.

The Bill, sponsored by Rep. Chris Smith (R - n l.j.) and Chairman of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio), is unlikely to pass in the Senate, where Democrats have a majority.

Should pass H.R. 3, it will create barriers to insurance companies covering the cost of abortion services, punish through taxes on companies and people to buy insurance and impede the access of women to a wide range of choice of reproductive health care.

13.5 Million women who receive Medicaid health coverage and other government programs would lose access to abortion coverage, according to pro-choice NARAL. H.R. 3 would also eliminate insurance coverage privacy for abortion in the exchanges of health set up by the affordable care Act.

A woman serving in the armed forces would be prohibited from paying for abortion, even with his own money, in a military hospital. Federal employees who pay for their own insurance loss would be prohibited access to abortion because of their coverage of insurance, as Ms. Magazine.

Companies who purchase health insurance plans that cover abortion would be denied tax credits, then these 87 per cent of the insurance companies that include coverage would treat the strict new procedural requirements.

Lead sponsor Rep. Smith, to prohibit the victims of rape access to public funds for abortion in denying that they are victims, in January, tried to use the Bill to redefine rape as "forced". under his definition, rape; legal presumption of rape. and rape of mental disability, disabled, people with disabilities or the totally unconscious would not be considered rape at all. These victims would therefore not eligible to receive federal help for abortion services.

This attempt to restrict the scope of rape met such staunch opposition that Rep. Smith, with other conservative legislators, has promised to remove the provisional language. However, according to Mother Jones, Republicans plan to use a door legislative maneuver back to redefine rape in the Bill.

Opponents are now call H.R. 3 the "audit Bill rape", according to Mother Jones, because rape victims who receive abortion services parce que les victimes de viol qui re?oivent des services d' avortement affrontera will face reportedly audit by the IRS.

The White House issued a statement condemning H.R. 3, saying that the Obama administration "strongly opposed to" Bill because "it infringes on the freedom of childbearing women and access to health care;" increases the tax burden of the Americas for many "and"unnecessarily restricted the private insurance choices that consumers have today.""

House Republicans back on Medicare review

WASHINGTON  - Republican Congress sustained Thursday far a contentious plan to overhaul Medicare that the President Barack Obama and fellow Democrats have transformed into a weapon against them for the next year's elections.

House of representatives of the Chairman of the Committee of ways David Camp said that his Panel will not advance a Republican proposal to privatize Medicare for future retirees because there is no chance of getting adopted by the Senate Democrats. But the Camp, said that the powerful tax writing Committee will act on any compromise on deficit reduction plan.

"I am interested in the search for a way forward which will get passed," Camp said to journalists at an event sponsored by Health Affairs, a journal of health policy.

Camp of spoke as Vice President Joe Biden began bipartisan talks White House to reduce the deficit of $ 1.4 billion.

Author of the sickness insurance scheme, Chairman of the Budget Committee House Paul Ryan, said Republicans hoped thus achieving some budgetary expenditures in the negotiations, but predicted that radical changes to the health program popular would not stake after 2012.

"We are not under any illusion that we are going to get any grand slam agreement", said Ryan.

Obama called the "radical" Ryan health insurance proposal, saying: it tries to resolve the deficit on the back of the poor.

Republicans, who control the House, met the wrath of voters on the proposal, which would be progressively traditional managed by the Government Medicare and replace it for future retirees with subsidies for the purchase of private insurers health policies.

FACING THE REALITY OF POLICY

Camp and Ryan comments suggest a new pragmatic tone by the Republicans in the budget negotiations taking place as Congress clashes within August 2 to lift the ceiling of 14.3 billion U.S. debt or risk by default on its obligationsa result that could devastate world financial markets.

They also face the political reality that the sickness insurance scheme shall not pass the Senate, and he became a powerful weapon on the political plan for Democrats for 2012 presidential and legislative election campaigns.

50 Senate Democrats in a letter to House Republican Leader Eric Cantor Thursday voice strong opposition to the Republican regime Medicare.

Ryan said in a speech to the American Council for the training of Capital than the Democrats and the Republicans were too far on the way to slow the growth of Medicare and other health programs managed by the Government to agree before 2012.

"I believe that 2012 will be the ultimate deciding these things", he said.

Democrats started ads against some Republicans who backed the Republican budget House project, which included the health insurance scheme. They contrast Republican opposition to higher taxes oil companies with a desire to overhaul Medicare.

"GOP is now for"Gas and oil party"and"Get old"simultaneously,"said House democratic representative Ed Markey, referring to the nickname of the Republican party."."

While a sweeping Medicare overhaul was cancelled, Camp said it remains on the table. A rapid rise in spending for the United States health programs threaten to wipe out the budget.

"I will not do anything off the coast of the table," said Camp. He said that Democrats need to come forward with some ideas.

The debt limit has been considered a Republican lever to exert pressure on Obama and democratic legislators in accepting to deep cuts in federal spending.

Tea Party conservatives insist on spending even tough controls with no rapid agreement on health insurance and other social programs.

"There needs to be some rows this kick, as well as... you have automated budget expenditures" when expenditures reached a certain level, representing Republican Allen West, a member of the Tea House Party Caucus, told Reuters.
