House to Vote on Protect Life Act

It is anticipated that during the week of October 11, the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on the Protect Life Act, H.R. 358. Congress will observe the Columbus Day holiday on Monday, October 10, but will be in session Tuesday and the remainder of the week.

An NCHLA Action Alert can be found at: nchla.org/actiondisplay.asp?ID=286. Representatives should be urged to vote for H.R. 358 and to oppose any hostile weakening amendments.

The Protect Life Act would bring the new health care reform law into line with policies on abortion and conscience rights existing in other federal health programs.
