Biden Rule Change May Leave Pro-Life Doctors Without Conscience Protections
Life News ^ | January 10, 2024 | Laura Echevarria

Posted on 01/10/2024 3:47:43 PM PST by Morgana

On Tuesday, the Department of Health and Human Services rescinded, in part, a 2019 Trump-era rule that protected the conscience rights of healthcare workers. The Trump-era rule, if implemented, would have given healthcare workers the ability to seek meaningful recourse if they were forced to violate their ethical and religious beliefs.

If a healthcare provider refuses to participate in abortion or assisted suicide, the only recourse is to file a complaint with President Biden’s Department of Health and Human Services. The Biden rule change is likely to leave people more vulnerable to being forced to participate in procedures that violate their conscience.

“President Biden is once again showing his allegiance to pro-abortion groups and their demands,” said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. “His administration is willing to trample on the rights of millions of healthcare workers by changing a rule designed to protect them from having to perform abortions against their religious or ethical convictions.”

She added, “This administration has been more than willing to comply with the demands of pro-abortion groups and their allies.”

Ironically, the HHS rule change says it will “strengthens protections against conscience and religious discrimination.”

Doctors must obey government orders to kill. And you know it won’t stop with abortion.

How can a doctor abort a baby? Where is the doctor’s freedom of choice?

The way they will eliminate Christianity is by forcing you to choose between your principles and your job.

The democrats know what they are doing. Christianity is their main enemy.

Doctors will quit and there will not be enough to care for everyone. Everything they do is geared towards increasing the mortality rate of the species.

Really, how many health care professionals could there be who are pro-life? There’s no money in it.

“The way they will eliminate Christianity is by forcing you to choose between your principles and your job.”

The joke’s on them. That will only eliminate the fake Christians.

My daughter is an MD. She will not practice medicine in any hospital that performs abortions. She’s doing OK financially and her soul does not have that black stain.
