The Obama administration said Friday that it will not provide broad exceptions to the contraception mandate in its signature healthcare law.The Health and Human Services Department rejected calls to let any employer opt out of the mandate based on religious objections to contraception. But the department took new steps to remove religiously affiliated employers from the process of paying for their employees' contraception coverage.The administration had announced last year that it would allow religiously affiliated nonprofits — for example, Catholic hospitals and universities — to avoid paying for birth control directly. Friday's regulations clarify the process through which those employers' insurance companies will offer birth control outside of the employers' healthcare plans.
i don't believe the right wing was just trying to protect churches from additional expenses, it was for business being grouped with that opposing group and being able to legally deny women's health.
“This policy delivers on the promise of women having access to birth control without copays no matter where they work,” said Cecile Richards, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. “Of course, we are reviewing the technical aspects of this proposal, but the principle is clear and consistent. This policy makes it clear that your boss does not get to decide whether you can have birth control.”
they made a big deal over their fraudulent claim that gov't was trying to get between you and your Dr,. then as usual doing it and blaming the Pres., they set up this right we crap about allowing your boss in your bedroom and between you and your Dr, typical they lie then double down on the more extreme.
are you getting a clearer picture of a 2014 in their hands?
