FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL
Time is running out for Congress to repeal Obamacare and defund Planned Parenthood with only 51 votes!
The health care reform legislation offered by Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Bill Cassidy (R-La.) is now the GOP's last chance to fulfill their promises to repeal and replace Obamacare before the September 30 deadline for a 2017 budget reconciliation bill which allows passage with only 51 votes!
The pro-life majority controls both chambers of Congress and the White House, with President Trump eager to sign the Graham-Cassidy bill into law.
The GOP is without excuse.
The Graham-Cassidy bill restores the principle of the Hyde Amendment that abortion is not health care and should not be subsidized --
a principle Obamacare went around.
The Graham-Cassidy bill would repeal Obamacare's wasteful spending, including its massive abortion subsidies, as well as repeal its individual and employer mandate penalties.
It would also replace Obamacare with block grants so that states can create state programs to provide health insurance free from Obamacare's burdensome regulations.
The good news is these state block grants would not subsidize abortion!
The Graham-Cassidy bill also would defund the lion's share of federal funding for Planned Parenthood!
The tragedy of Planned Parenthood's shady abortion business is compounded every day that passes with Congress' inaction to redirect its massive taxpayer funding toward better, more comprehensive health care alternatives.
Please call your two U.S. Senators at (202) 224-3121 to urge them to support the Graham-Cassidy bill to repeal and replace Obamacare, stop taxpayer funding of abortion, and end the forced partnership between taxpayers and Planned Parenthood.
After you've called, you can also email them by following this link. Time is running out, and senators need to hear your voice!
Standing (Eph. 6:13),
Tony Perkins
President
