Here is something from yesterday

^snip^

House leaders were working to secure their votes late Saturday with the promise of an executive order affirming President Obama's commitment to a longstanding ban on public abortion funding except in cases of rape or incest, or to save the life of the mother

17. Thanks.

I read that as saying that such an order could possibly be used to get votes, not that it's a certainty, but I could be mistaken.

But Stupak told Lesa that he's met with White House lawyers today and says they are "close" on an agreement

19. What price did we pay for that vote?

[subterranean]
