Rep. Joe Donnelly (D., N.Y.) who originally voted ‘yes’ on Obamacare, has called the abortion language in the Senate bill a “fatal flaw” and said “I would not vote for it.”

He laid out his objections to the Senate bill’s language in an interview with the Rochester Sentinal:

1. Contrary to the language governing existing programs such as SCHIP and Medicaid, under the Senate bill the federal government will subsidize insurance policies that cover elective abortion.
2. Under the new Office of Personnel Management program all but one plan could pay for abortion. Currently, OPM administers the Federal Employee Health Insurance Program under which abortion funding is prohibited.
3. Authorities granted to federal officials could be used to mandate abortion coverage.
4. The accounting mechanisms in the Senate bill provide the authority to force many Americans to pay directly into an abortion fund.
5. The Federal Indian health program is reauthorized without the Vitter amendment against funding for elective abortion.
6. The “Hyde-Weldon” conscience protection for health care workers is omitted from the Senate bill.
7. Federal funds can pay for elective abortions at Community Health Centers.
8. High-risk insurance pool funds may be used to pay for abortion.
