New HHS Ruling "literally unconscionable"

Jan23

Written by:Knight Blogger

"Literally unconscionable" is how the US Catholic Bishops described a recent ruling from the department of Health and Human Services regarding an aspect of the healthcare reform legislation. It requires that all Americans, as of August 1st 2012, purchase government approved health insurance that provides for sterilizations and FDA approved contraceptives, including those that cause abortions.

As such, employers must provide insurance plans that cover those services. Therefore, as a Catholic, you will be required by law to either purchase or supply a product that includes provisions for things we believe as violating moral law.

Read more about this new ruling and how our Catholic Bishops are responding. Get those pens warmed up to write or find the email addresses of your rep to let them know how you feel (links to finding your rep are on our home page).
