ned-parenthood-the-hyde-amendment-and-indigenous-struggle

House Bill on Medicaid Providers Would Limit Beneficiaries' Access to Care
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/33049-house-bill-on-medicaid-providers-w=
ould-limit-beneficiaries-access-to-care
Judith Solomon, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities: Limiting access to =

tate chose to broadly define providers "involved with abortions," beneficia=
ries could lose access to other services.

The Daily Take Team, The Thom Hartmann Program: Rep. Kevin McCarthy has no =
