New Bush Administration Rule Is An Assault On Women’s Health Care
December 18th, 2008 by Karina

While current law already protects the religious beliefs of health care providers and professionals, the Bush Administration’s Health and Human Services issued a ‘refusal clause’ rule today that is so broad it could limit women’s access to comprehensive health care and other services.

Speaker Pelosi:

In issuing this midnight regulation, the Bush Administration has once again rejected medical and sound science in favor of misguided ideology that has no place in our government. The Administration has ignored the opposition of the American Medical Association, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American Hospital Association, Members of Congress, and hundreds of thousands of concerned citizens and practitioners who made their informed views known to Health and Human Services.

Make no mistake: this is a direct assault on women’s health care and may jeopardize patients’ rights to receive quality, comprehensive health care services. Congress will work with President-elect Obama to reverse this rule.

Those willing to kill women to save their souls need to be noted and proclaimed.
