Taking another step into the abortion debate, the Obama administration Friday will move to rescind a controversial rule that allows health-care workers to deny abortion counseling or other family-planning services if doing so would violate their moral beliefs, according to administration officials.
The rollback of the "conscience rule" comes just two months after the Bush administration announced it last year in one of its final policy initiatives.
The new administration's action seems certain to stoke ideological battles between supporters and opponents of abortion rights over the responsibilities of doctors, nurses and other medical workers to their patients.

EVIL at work!
so.... if you morally object you still must perform abortions? or else...what? Will they throw you in jail for your beliefs?
This is where the rubber meets the road. No Christian doctor or hospital ought to stand for this dictator’s evil ruling. And every Christian ought to support their doctors who refuse to go against God in this matter. A time of “put up or shut up” is rapidly approaching, when the sheep will be separated from the goats.
“We ought to obey God rather than man.” Act 5:29
Why not make it illegal to have a conscience?
Is there anyone left in the democrat party that has one?
And having a conscience is way above obama’s pay grade.
no, but if you don’t go along with giving an abortion to any patient who demands one- they could ban you from employment at any facility that has any type of federal programs or funding
which under socialized medicine will be all of them
He will now show is true colours.
ah, but no one will be free to practice “religion” that impedes someone elses “constitutional right” to abortion- in a federally supported medical facility
follow the federal money
In just one month, he has proven to be 1,000 times worse than I ever feared. And, more’s coming. Remember this:

The Chicago Swamp is in the White House.
By June imagine what things will be like considering the short time-frame Obama & his leftist totalitarians have been in office.
Thanks for posting the youtube.
“...SHALL NOT INFRINGE ON THE FREE EXCERCISE THEREOF..”!!!!
I am in school right now for pre-med. Maybe I should move toward microbiology instead.
Or, on second thought, maybe I should just do what I want. FUBO!!!!
And it sounds like this will include pharmacies.
Support your states’ 10th amendment resolutions,
and demand that they include a “non-enforcement” clause that states that any unconstitutional law such as this will not be enforced in the sovereign state of ZZ.
NO ONE has to help perform an abortion. Just DON’T do it. You will NOT be arrested, but yes, lower-level employees might lose their jobs. Doctors won’t.
“Officials stressed Thursday that the administration is looking for input from people across the ideological spectrum before it finalizes the rollback after the standard 30-day comment period.”
How do their children feel/think about this?
Barak Hussein Obama is EVIL!
Catholic Charities in Massachusetts has already entirely shut down their adoption programs because the government was going to force them to place children with same-sex adoptive couples. “Atlas Shrugged” in another area, as it were. Look for entire hospitals to shut down in the wake of such a change.
