                        OBSESSION WITH ABORTION

  (Mr. GROTHMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. GROTHMAN. Madam Speaker, a lot has been said about the 
reconciliation bill that we may or may not vote on. Obviously, the 
spending is tremendously out of control and will further fan the flames 
of inflation. There are several provisions in there designed, one more 
time, I would argue, to replace fathers and the family.
  Madam Speaker, today, I will address, one more time, the majority's 
obsession with abortion. We have already seen this cycle, efforts made 
in the White House to get rid of the Mexico City policy and have the 
United States involved in pushing abortion around the world, kind of a 
very strange and sad thing given how blessed this country has been by 
the Almighty during our tenure.
  In this bill, one more time, be it including $10 billion in public 
health funding grants that do not include the Hyde amendment, or 
abortion coverage for ObamaCare and plans covering individuals up to 
138 percent of the Federal poverty line, this is one of the most 
extreme pro-abortion bills that I have seen yet, and it is another 
reason not to vote for the reconciliation bill.
