Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump
The Mayor of San Juan, who was very complimentary only a few days ago, has now been told by the Democrats that you must be nasty to Trump. Such poor leadership ability by the Mayor of San Juan, and others in Puerto Rico, who are not able to get their workers to help. They want everything to be done for them when it should be a community effort. 10,000 Federal workers now on Island doing a fantastic job. The military and first responders, despite no electric, roads, phones etc., have done an amazing job. Puerto Rico was totally destroyed. Fake News CNN and NBC are going out of their way to disparage our great First Responders as a way to "get Trump." Not fair to FR or effort! I will be going to Puerto Rico on Tuesday with Melania. Will hopefully be able to stop at the U.S. Virgin Islands (people working hard). The Fake News Networks are working overtime in Puerto Rico doing their best to take the spirit away from our soldiers and first R's. Shame!

The new law expands taxpayer-subsidized abortions for women covered by Medicaid and state employee insurance. The state already covers abortions in cases of rape, incest and when there is a threat to the health and life of the mother. The law expands the Medicaid coverage beyond those limited cases. Illinois Right to Life, which opposed the bill, projected that the measure could mean 12,000 additional abortions per year. Another group, however, put the figure at 3,800 a year.

The expansion of public funding for abortions is opposed by those who say it violates a longstanding principle that taxpayers should not have to foot the bill for a procedure that they might oppose on moral or religious grounds. But supporters of the legislation say the limits on abortions for women who are covered by Medicaid or state employee insurance create unfair burdens and hurdles.

In April, as Rauner tried to keep Republicans united in the midst of a historic budget standoff against Democrats, he termed the abortion legislation "divisive" and threatened to veto it. The governor later indicated he would support lifting the "trigger" provision but wanted the expansion of taxpayer-subsidized abortions set aside for another day.

That contrasted with candidate Rauner in 2014, who filled out a questionnaire for Personal PAC, an abortion rights advocacy group.

"I dislike the Illinois law that restricts abortion coverage under the state Medicaid plan and state employees' health insurance because I believe it unfairly restricts access based on income," Rauner wrote at the time. "I would support a legislative effort to reverse that law."

On Thursday, Rauner noted he has always supported abortion rights.

"I personally am pro-choice. I always have been," Rauner said. "I have not and never will change my views."

Rauner broke his promise by signing abortion coverage bill, Cupich says
Rauner also cast his previous veto threat as an attempt to broker compromise between abortion rights advocates and people who object to the procedure on moral grounds.
