A Victory for the Forces of Evil!Conscience Rights Defeated!

The Coburn conscience protection amendment was voted down by a margin of 41-56.
The failure to pass this legislation now leaves the door open for the Obama
Administration to rescind the law by executive order and force health workers to
compromise their moral convictions. |

The Catholic league writes:
|
|
April 3, 2009 an amendment introduced by Sen. Tom Coburn to protect the
conscience of patients and health care providers was defeated by a vote of
56-41. The amendment was proposed in light of the Obama administration’s plans
to rescind the rule, which was issued in December by the Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS), that protects the right of health care workers at
federally- funded facilities to refuse to perform or be involved in medical
procedures that violate their consciences.

Catholic League President, Bill Donohue,
spoke to this issue:
|
|
“The failure of the administration and the Senate to protect freedom of
conscience is an outrageous violation of human rights and a slap in the face to
Catholics and other people of faith. No one in the health care field should ever
be compelled by law to perform or assist in a procedure that violates his
conscience. This should be an elementary right, yet there are those who want to
trespass on it.
 “Francis Cardinal George, president of the United States Conference of Catholic
Bishops, has called upon Catholics to let the government know that conscience
protections are fundamental rights of Americans. He expressed concern that
reversal of the current rule ‘would be the first step in moving our country from
democracy to despotism.’
“Failure to protect the right of conscience, combined with overturning the
Mexico City Policy, supporting the United Nations Population Fund, funding
embryonic stem cell research and nominating radical abortion rights supporter
Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius to be the Secretary of HHS, sends the message to
Catholics that their concerns are not important.
“We implore all lawmakers to reconsider this issue with an eye toward restoring
the conscience rights of health care workers.”

Lawmakers are not listening to their constituants. Is it more self-interest
serving to listen to the special interest who have money?
Kick the sleaze bags out of office!
