No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Full Insurance Disclosure

This bill aims to prohibit the use of federal taxpayer funds for abortions and health insurance plans that cover abortions. This means federal money, including health insurance tax credits, cannot be used to pay for abortion services, except in cases of rape, incest, or to save the mother's life. Additionally, insurance plans must clearly disclose their abortion coverage and any related surcharges.
