The revelation by the General Accounting Office that the Affordable Care Act is funding abortions at will has caused outrage among the Christian community.

The GAO report says that in 28 states there were no restrictions on abortion and that in some states including Vermont, Connecticut and New Jersey every single plan offered through the ACA paid for abortions.

Christian groups wasted no time in expressing their outrage that Christians are now paying for abortions against their will because of the ACA.

“The American people should not be forced to purchase an Obamacare healthcare plan before they are able to find out what is in it. They should not be kept in the dark regarding elective abortion coverage in Obamacare exchange plans,” said Tony Perkins of Family Research Council. “Further, the American people should not be forced to pay for other people’s abortions and check their consciences at the door in order to purchase insurance.”

“This report exposes what we’ve known all along: that Obamacare was designed to force Americans to pay for abortions,” stated Casey Matto senior legal counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF). “Instead of deceiving the American people, the administration needs to follow federal law and deliver on the transparency we were promised.”

The proponents of the Affordable Care Act claimed abortion would not be part of the main plans but an option that could be purchased solely by the consumer.  However, most insurance companies are not making that designation.
