I think it's a bit ridiculous and misleading to say that "FOCA will compel (force) taxpayers to fund abortions." Where exactly is that stated in the Acts proposed by the Senate or House? I believe that is the "radical" (as they like to say about Pro-Choice supporters) interpretation by the AUL (Americans United for Life).

The FOCA simply means Pro-Choice. I personally do not "support" abortion, but if a situation such as RAPE, INCEST, my life or my daughters life is in jeopardy, or the need (say, 6 embryos fertilize) for selective reduction to save the lives of as many embryos as possible presents itself, I want that option available.

FOCA was written to protect Roe vs. Wade...not to hand out abortion "free passes" or put up billboards saying "get your FREE government funded abortion here!"

So, if you are Pro-Choice DO NOT sign this petition.
