              DEDUCTION FOR MEDICAL EXPENSES.

    (a) In General.--Section 213 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 
is amended by adding at the end the following new subsection:
    ``(g) Amounts Paid for Abortion Not Taken Into Account.--

                endangering physical condition caused by or arising 
                from the pregnancy itself, that would, as certified by

                an abortion is performed, or
                    ``(B) a pregnancy that is the result of an act of
