The original HR 3962 did intend to require exchanges to include plans that both covered abortions and those that did not, but the provision that did so did not mention abortions but instead tried to cross-reference an earlier provision describing abortions, and did so using the wrong sub-section number. This provision was eliminated by the Stupak amendment, so that now exchanges are clearly not required to include plans offering abortions under the House bill." I presume that you are correcting an error on your post above, but I wasn't sure where the error is. Would you be so kind as to point out in which paragraph the error is? Thanks, and I appreciate the work you are doing with your blog and other commentary. Dear Timothy,
