LifeNews:
On a 240-185 vote today, with all Republicans supporting and all but three Democrats in opposition, the House of Representatives voted to strip the Obamacare health care law of its federal funding.
The Senate voted immediately afterwards 53-47, on a party-line vote, and defeated the Obamacare de-funding measure. However, the House vote is an indication of the way Americans strongly oppose the Obamacare law, which contains loopholes allowing federal taxpayer funding of abortion and presents rationing concerns for pro-life groups.
The Senate vote had all three of the self-declared pro-life Democrats, Ben Nelson of Nebraska, Joe Manchin of West Virginia, and Bob Casey of Pennsylvania, vote against de-funding the pro-abortion, pro-rationing Obamacare law.
