Protect Life Act
Cosponsored by 124 Members of Congress as of September 30, 2010 (not including Kathy Dahlkemper), the bill identifies serious abortion-related flaws in the PPACA and provides the necessary corrections.
Analysis by the Congressional Research Service
This document illustrates that neither the PPACA itself nor the executive order promulgated by President Obama prevent all direct federal payments for abortion.
Executive Order 13535 - Ensuring Enforcement and Implementation of Abortion Restrictions in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
Unfortunately, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act contains no substantial abortion restrictions to ensure "enforcement of implementation of." Despite the lofty rhetoric, Obama's executive order only limits a tiny portion for the abortion-funding problem: federal payments to "community health centers."
Center for Reproductive Rights
"The executive order issued by the President on abortion only addressed rules for segregating funds for abortion coverage in the healthcare exchanges and limits on community health centers." (emphasis added)
March 20, 2010 Letter from Robert A. Desrto, Professor at Law, Catholic University of America
This letter helps explain why President Obama's executive order is expected to be litigated and ruled illegal.
Kathy Dahlkemper says that pro-life organizations are lying for political purposes. Did she not establish that all of the nation's major pro-life organizations are LIARS when she argued correctly that money appropriated by the PPACA for the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plans will NOT pay for abortions?

People for Life opposes all acts of violence. Violence directed against abortion facilities amounts to terrorism and deserves unequivocal condemnation. Such terrorism is an affront to the sanctity of human life and an affront to the rule of law, without which we can never hope to achieve a just--or maintain a free--society.
Q. How early can babies be born and survive?
A. Welcome to our website! Thanks to modern medical technology and expertise, babies delivered prematurely at just 24 weeks after conception (fertilization) have survival rates of 80% to 90%, and half the babies born at just 22 weeks survive. Babies born at 22 weeks with very high birth weights survive at rates as high as 81%. Some babies born during the 20th week also survive. At least one baby is known to have survived after being born just 19 weeks, 6 days from conception.
Of course "preemies" cannot survive all by themselves. Just like younger unborn children in their mother's wombs, they are completely dependent on others for their well-being and protection. This helplessness, however, does not diminish their humanity. On the contrary, it entitles these little ones to even more love and concern, as well as the expenditure of considerable time and resources to ensure their survival and many happy birthdays to come.
Abortion is legal in the United States throughout all nine months of pregnancy, before and after the age when babies can survivie a premature delivery. Only four other nations have such extreme abortion policies: Canada, China, North Korea, and Vietnam.
"Why are physicians not providing readily available information that could affect their patients' judgment regarding abortion?"
On Thursday, May 1, 2008, a peaceful Cemetery of the Innocents display at the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point (UWSP) was vandalized in broad daylight and in defiance of campus security officers by a Student Senator, Roderick King. SEE THE VIDEO.
Those who deny others the right to life itself are not infrequently zealous to deny others the right to the freedom of speech.
"The Court finds that the testimony at trial and before Congress establishes that D&X [partial-birth abortion] is a gruesome, brutal, barbaric, and uncivilized medical procedure . . . [and finds] credible evidence that D&X abortions subject fetuses to severe pain." -- U.S. District Judge Richard Casey, New York
