Sen. Bob Casey Jr. (D-Pa.) voted in favor of an amendment offered by Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) in the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) committee that mirrored the language of the Hyde amendment and would have prohibited federal funds from paying for any part of a health insurance plan in the federally funded health insurance programs set up by the bill.
The amendment failed, and the bill approved by the committee would permit federal funding of abortion. Despite this, Casey voted in favor of the bill in the committee.
Casey is pro-life?
