Coalition of leaders alarmed that pro-lifers unaware of what is at stake with Obamacare BY LifeSiteNews.com By Steve JalsevacWASHINGTON, D.C., July 17, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A coalition of prominent pro-life leaders has arranged a giant, Stop The Abortion Mandate live webcast for the public this coming Thursday, July 23, to alert Americans about the great dangers of the Democrat-proposed health care bill. David Bereit, a coalition member and leader of 40 Days for Life, told LifeSiteNews that he is temporarily de-emphasizing his current 40 Days for Life tasks to concentrate on this issue because of its extreme importance. He is concerned that pro-lifers are not aware of what is at stake with the health care bill. Connie Marshner, a well-known Washington pro-life political organizer, warned today that "this is the biggest issue since Roe v Wade. This is not just about funding. Everyone will be forced to have abortion coverage." Further, she warned, the effect of successful passage of the Health Care bill will dramatically change the pro-life movement as we know it "because every doctor and health care worker will be forced to be involved in abortion." The pro-life webcast's promotional material states that "Powerful abortion industry lobbyists and Washington, D.C. bureaucrats have just launched a massive effort to mandate taxpayer-funded abortions as part of their proposed trillion-dollar healthcare takeover."  They list four main results of what they call "this abortion industry power-grab":Impose one of the cornerstones of the "Freedom of Choice Act" (FOCA) by stealth Force taxpayers to fund a huge abortion industry bailout—something the majority of Americans oppose, and certainly cannot afford in these tough economic times Mandate that virtually every American be forced into a health plan that includes abortion coverage Require honorable medical providers to violate their consciences and perform abortions—or risk losing their jobs The one-time-only LIVE webcast event will take place this Thursday, July 23, at 9 PM Eastern (6 PM Pacific, 7 PM Mountain, 8 PM Central.)The live webcast, for which there is no charge, will be approximately 70 minutes long and will be accessible even to Internet users with only a dial-up connection.
