Hypocrisy alert! Hypocrisy alert!... According to its website, standard Carefirst Blue Cross Blue Shield policies cover elective abortions unless the employer specifically opts out.
House Minority Whip Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA), another staunch opponent of reproductive rights, also provides Carefirst Blue Cross Blue Shield coverage to his campaign employees.
Both Gingrich and Cantor’s office have not responded to calls from ThinkProgress inquiring if either employer has canceled elective abortion coverage on their insurance coverage.
So, let's see, the
RNC provides health insurance (
update: or did, until the story broke - lol) that covers elective abortions to
its employees, as do "many anti-choice conservative leaders." So, are they all going to drop this coverage immediately or what? Hello? Guys?
