From the Pennsylvania Catholic Conference:
The original religious liberty-violating rule of the Department of Health and Human Services has been published without change. Promises were made that more regulations might be developed, but the “accommodations,” if made, will still force religious employers to pay for abortion-causing drugs, sterilization and contraception – either directly or through money paid to an insurance company.
The bishops continue to work to correct this First Amendment violation through communications with the White House, advocating for legislative remedies or pursuing litigation that could reverse this decision.
Additionally, Pennsylvania’s bishops have turned to the most important tools in our toolbox: prayer and sacrifice. They have called for a day of prayer, fasting and abstinence from meat for the intention of religious liberty on Friday, March 30. Read more about it here.
