Abortion language may be cut from Senate ObamaCare bill

Key provisions of the Senate’s ObamaCare repeal bill meant to curb abortion services are in serious danger of being dropped from the legislation, which could cost the bill votes from conservatives.

All three provisions, according to aides and lobbyists, are expected to fall short of budgetary rules.

Republicans are using budget reconciliation rules to pass the ObamaCare repeal bill in order to prevent Democrats from filibustering it.

The problem is that provisions in the healthcare bill must be budget-related to be included in a measure considered under those special rules.
