LAW WOULD REQUIRE PRO-LIFE GROUPS TO OFFER ABORTION COVERAGE

|| By FITSNEWS || Pro-life groups in Washington, D.C. plan to practice civil disobedience in response to a law they say imposes upon their religious freedoms.

Multiple groups including the Alliance Defending Freedom, the Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, Americans United for Life, March for Life, Concerned Women for America, the Susan B. Anthony List and the Family Research Council issued a statement in response to an

“Despite the enactment of this unjust law, we will continue to hire employees who share our commitment to the dignity of every member of the human family,” the groups said in a statement.

The groups are protesting the so-called Reproductive Health Non-Discrimination Act, which bans “discrimination by an employer, employment agency, or labor organization, based on an individual’s or dependent’s reproductive health decisions.”

In other words it would force these pro-life groups to subsidize abortions …

This website is pro-life – and supportive of the right of private businesses to deny coverage for abortions.  Accordingly, we support these groups in practicing civil disobedience of what we agree is an “unjust law.”

And no … this isn’t the first time we’ve embraced civil disobedience, either.

I am proud to call you a friend.Keep speaking the Truth on faith and ‘life’ issues.You get it.As Mother Teresa once said, “if a mother can kill her own child, what can be next”. The God given, in our SOUL, sanctity of life no longer exists in many hearts today and why we have lost families,our children and yes, entire communities.

There was never anything in the law requiring anyone to purchase or subsidize anything. But since the moral busy bodies are in a tizz – they added language to clear up the imagined confusion….Now the folks who “can’t mind their own business” are worried they might have to hire someone who doesn’t hold the same beliefs that they do. I don’t know about anyone else, but no employer or prospective employer has ever asked me about abortion or birth control.

The D.C. Council on Tuesday tweaked an anti-discrimination law to ensure it didn’t force employers to provide insurance coverage for abortions or other reproductive health care decisions they oppose on religious or moral grounds.

In an emergency amendment to the Reproductive Health Non-Discrimination Amendment Act passed Tuesday, the council unanimously voted to clarify language about discrimination on the basis of sex.

“This emergency amendment is meant to remove any ambiguity as to whether the law … would require employers to provide insurance coverage for reproductive health care to employees despite an employer’s moral or religious objection,” said D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson.
