Ne Dem Party: Governor creates abortion epidemic

Published Saturday March 20, 2010

The Nebraska Democratic Party accused Republican Gov. Dave Heineman on Friday of giving “lip service” to his anti-abortion views.

Vic Covalt, Democratic chairman, said he was “appalled and offended” that Heineman worked to kill a bill in the Legislature that would have restored government-funded prenatal care for some low-income pregnant women, including illegal immigrants.

Covalt said the measure’s defeat will lead to more women seeking abortions.

“Actions truly speak louder than words. Heineman has created an abortion epidemic across the state while pretending to be pro-life,” he said.
