NRLC Response to Roeder Verdict

WASHINGTON -- Today, a jury in Wichita, Kansas found Scott Roeder guilty of first-degree murder for shooting Dr. George Tiller on May 31, 2009.

O'Steen, Ph.D.

The letter concludes: "NRLC believes that enactment of the abortion-related provisions of the Senate-passed health care bill would ultimately result in substantial expansions of abortion, driven by federal administrative decrees and federal subsidies, and a vote to advance such legislation would be described in those terms in the NRLC congressional scorecard for the 111th Congress. In contrast, inclusion of the substance of the House-passed abortion language, on the six points cited above, would preserve long-established federal policies on abortion, and would fully address our concerns regarding the abortion policy issues."
