Just because you may oppose abortion doesn’t mean you should be denied comprehensive health care coverage, according to Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore and Cardinal Sean O’Malley of Boston.
The two spoke last Friday, urging Congress to support the Health Care Conscience Rights Act in defense of conscientious objection.
“Government should not force anyone to stop offering or covering much-needed legitimate health care because they cannot in conscience participate in destroying a developing human life or violate their conscience in other ways,” Archbishop Lori and Cardinal O’Malley together wrote in a letter to Congress.

Sounds good to me. Like the idea of Ronald Reagan’s compassionate conservativism. I assume the majority of Catholic elected R’s and D’s would support. Per article, President Obama also supports.

God Bless and Peace to all.
