HS2-HB110 requires Medicaid to cover “services related to the termination of pregnancy.”
The House passed HS2-HB110 on May 23, 2024, by a vote of 26 to 11. We have assigned pluses to the nays because the care of human life—not its destruction—is the greatest responsibility of government. No person has a right to kill a preborn child using the pretext of “reproductive health services,” let alone tax their neighbor to pay for it. Delaware ought to not only forbid abortion entirely, upholding the sanctity of life for every person, but end all immoral and anti-constitutional forms of government-imposed theft that take from citizens the wages they have duly earned. The right to life is the most fundamental, God-given, and “unalienable” right protected by the Fifth and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution, whereas Medicaid is an ever-expanding and unsustainable Federal-State ‘entitlement program’ not authorized under Article I, Section 8.
