Countdown to March For Life**

ROME, JAN. 16, 2010 (Zenit.org).- With the new members of the U.S. House of Congress now in place, abortion looks like continuing to be very much a high profile issue.
Congressman Mike Pence introduced a bill, (the Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act) with 122 cosponsors, to end federal funding for abortion providers, a Christian Newswire article reported Jan. 7.
Planned Parenthood would be the organization with the most to lose if the bill were to be passed. According to Pence, Planned Parenthood received more than $363 million in funds from the federal government last year. In this period they performed 324,008 abortions, up 5.8% on the previous year.
