The Republican National Committee has ordered its health insurer to drop a provision allowing RNC employees to receive insurance for abortions. The website Politico.com revealed that RNC employees are covered for abortion just days after House Republicans voted en masse for sweeping anti-abortion restrictions as part of the healthcare reform bill. The restrictions would bar federal subsidies to women who enroll in an insurance plan that covers abortion and also rule out abortion coverage under the proposed government-run insurance plan.
