Another nail in this regime’s coffin. Their fall is going to be hard and nasty.

However, President Obama has proposed overturning those conscience protections and will likely do so after a 30-day public comment window expires on April 9.

ACT NOW!

COMMENT DEADLINE: MIDNIGHT APRIL 9

You have a vitally important opportunity to immediately send a message to prevent a critical loss of access to healthcare professionals who are being systematically pressured to violate ethical standards. Here's what's been happening:

1. In August 2008, the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS) took long-overdue action to address a growing crisis of abortion-related discrimination that could force thousands of conscientious healthcare professionals out of medicine. After several months of public comment on its proposed regulation, in December 2008 HHS finalized a regulation that made clear the protections offered by three civil rights laws passed by Congress with bipartisan support.
2. The civil rights laws declare that American tax dollars will not fund programs in which healthcare professionals are fired, penalized or otherwise subjected to discrimination because of their ethical stance related to abortion and other morally controversial issues.
   
3. However, in March 2009, following protests from abortion special interest groups, the new administration officially declared plans to rescind--get rid of--the conscience-protecting regulation. The administration has, as required by law, called for public comment on the proposed plan to get rid of the conscience-protecting regulation, with a deadline of April 9, 2009.

Arlen Specter voted worse than the Dem Casey Jr. in this one (Casey Jr no doubt had to ask Reid “Mother may I?” first)

So I guess choice is limited to only one option. Some choice for doctors, huh?

Planned Parenthood runs this country. Somebody, please, research their cash flow so we can find the smoking gun, because I’m sure it’s there.

Time for some Civil Disobdedience on the part of some doctors and other medical professionals.

This will go to the Supreme Court, where it will be smacked down.

Pray for these professionals on the front lines, and pray for our country.
