From the Article:

Taxpayer-funded abortions. Romney's health-care plan in Massachusetts allows abortions for a co-pay of $50. Romney claims that "state law" requires taxpayer funded abortions. There is no such state law. He is referring to a 1983 Supreme Judicial Court decision that Medicaid patients must get "medically necessary" state-funded abortions. There's no "medically necessary" clause in Romney's plan. Nor did he make any attempt to keep abortions out of the plan, (though he did veto other sections of the bill) or challenge this rather vague court decision in any way.
