I have spoken with many hundreds of voters about this issue. Most voters that favor choice in EVERY instance are also NOT in favor of the government paying for abortions. They feel... Okay... your choice... your dollars. There are many other means of funding we can adopt in order to make sure there is a dollar pool to help those women who can't afford to pay for the procedure.

I can live with that if it keeps my body free of men's laws. Also... when the Government gets involved in paying for ANYTHING... that's when the strings attached to federal dollars become intrusive to the process.
