“The legislation vests new, huge, sweeping powers in an Obama-appointed committee tasked with establishing what is called essential health benefits that all plans must include,” Smith said. “Of course all that comes after the enactment and the signing into law the legislation.”
Smith added that abortion will be included in those benefits. “What we want to stress here is this benefits committee – which is unelected, and there will be minimal oversight – when they put together their minimum benefits of which abortion absolutely will be included on demand,” he said
