Florida Catholic Conference

Urge Congress to Support Respect for Rights of Conscience Act

On January 20, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) reaffirmed a rule under the new health care law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), that virtually all private health care plans must cover sterilization, abortifacients, and contraception. The rule is set to take effect August 1, 2012. Non-profit religious employers that do not now provide such coverage, and are not exempt under the rule's extremely narrow definition of religious employer, will be given one year-until August 1, 2013-to comply.
To correct this threat to religious liberty and rights of conscience, the Respect for Rights of Conscience Act has been introduced in Congress (H.R. 1179, S. 1467). This measure will ensure that those who participate in the health care system "retain the right to provide, purchase, or enroll in health coverage that is consistent with their religious beliefs and moral convictions."
Bishop Lynch published a letter to the faithful of the Diocese on February 4. You can read the Bishop's Letter about HHS mandate by following this link.
