Pennsylvania Governor's Race: Tom Corbett vs. Dan Onorato- Where do the candidates stand on abortion?

Tom Corbett, A Champion for Life
By Maureen Manzano
In the race for governor, sometimes silence speaks volumes.
Tom Corbett, Pennsylvania attorney general, and Republican
candidate for governor, has been a consistent pro-life advocate.
In a recent poll conducted by the PA Pro-Life Federation,
Corbett said he would support:
* Prohibiting the use of taxpayer dollars to fund elective abortions .
* Legislation providing women with the opportunity to view an
ultrasound of their preborn child before an abortion.
*Banning the use of state tax dollars for research which
destroys human embryos .
* Funding of Pregnancy Counseling Centers which provide
alternatives to abortion and do not counsel or refer for abortions.

His opponent, Democrat Dan Onorato, who has claimed to be
“personally pro-life,” has refused to respond to questions regarding
the above issues, in the PA Pro-Life Federation questionnaire.
He has also been quoted as saying that “Even if Roe v. Wade is
overturned, I will veto any attempt to change Pennsylvania’s law.”
(That law would allow abortions for up to 24 weeks of pregnancy).
Mr. Corbett has lauded the work of pro-life groups across the
state, and has consistently worked to preserve restrictions on abortions
in the state of Pennsylvania. He also stood up to Planned Parenthood
by supporting New Hampshire’s abortion control act before the
U.S. Supreme Court. By doing so, he ultimately protected
Pennsylvania’s Abortion Control Act by helping to preserve
restrictions on abortion nationwide.

Both candidates have promoted their own proposals for
healthcare reform in the state Mr. Corbett as attorney general,
joined Pennsylvania with 19 other states to file a lawsuit to stop
what is now called Obamacare, the sweeping health care reform
legislation that includes funding for abortion and raises concerns
about health care rationing. The states believe that the healthcare
reforms are unconstitutional.

In August, a federal judge allowed the suit to continue. The
federal court hearing began last month. While the Obama
Administration believes that states have no legal standing to bring
legal action against the federal government, attorneys general
for the 20 states believe the federal government is exceeding its
Constitutional authority by its mandate that all citizens have
health insurance or face a fine. The federal government’s
argument has been that the “individual mandate” is actually a
tax. Only taxpayers can argue the legality of a tax, they contend,
and even then only after the assessments take effect in 2015.
The administration also will cite its constitutional authority to
regulate interstate commerce, along with its responsibility to
provide for the public’s general welfare. As for healthcare, Mr.
Onorato has outlined several proposals, and while it does not go
into great detail under “Women’s Health,” it states that he “supports
state funding for comprehensive family planning services.”
