158. That's correct
No federal dollars can be spent on any plan that covers elective abortion. But that's the same restriction as Hyde, so what's the new issue?

There is NOTHING in Stupak that would prevent private plans in the exchange from covering elective abortion, as long as the provider also offers identical plans that do not cover those procedures. In other words, they have to offer choice.

Why is choice a bad thing?
