35. How so? One could still pay for an abortion out of pocket.
By the way, this is what those on medicaid (the very poor) have to do now as the Hyde amendment already outlaws direct federal payments for abortion. That is why some here (myself included) felt that the outrage against the Stupac amendment was a little disingenuous and was based on the "middle class" getting it's ox gored. It seemed to be fine and dandy when it was just the poor getting screwed. Not that either Stupac or Hyde are OK - just pointing out the contradiction - something to think about.
