Wisconsin Right to Life raises concerns over Senate health plan

June 29, 2007 By WRN Contributor

Wisconsin Right to Life has a big concern over a universal health care plan for the state. The group wants to be sure none of the $15 billion that would be raised through the plan would go towards funding abortions. Lobbyist Susan Armacost says taxpayer funding on most abortions is against current law.

Armacost says the plan is heavily involved in state taxpayer dollars and they want to meet with Democratic leaders to make sure the law is followed.

The health plan is included in a $66 billion budget approved by the state Senate this week.
