Senate to Start Abortion Debate Tuesday

On December 8th, the Senate will officially open up the issue of whether or not abortion should be an addition into the nationalized Health Care bill. Previously all of the issues with the bill have been primarily about money issues, or at least issues that aren't too highly debated over.

This will change tomorrow, and the fate of the entire bill may be decided if the issue of abortion is not handled correctly by the Senate. The age old debate over abortion is still a very touchy issue for many in Washington, and the thought of government sponsored abortions is terrible to many.

This is yet another hurdle that the health care bill must get over, but the fact that this new issue is being brought up does mean that the bill is moving forward. However, like all great reforms, passing the Health Care bill is going to take some time.
