OBAMACARE VIOLATES MORAL AND RELIGIOUS RIGHTS - SUPPORT HR 940

Dear Friends,

Americans should not be forced to violate their moral or religious conscience when they provide or purchase health care.

As you know, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (also known as ObamaCare) contains a mandate which bypasses our constitutionally protected rights, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), and the conscience laws by requiring the majority of health care plans to include abortion-inducing drugs, like ella and Plan B, free as "preventive services for women."

There are over 40 lawsuits filed by religious nonprofits and secular for-profit businesses, claiming the mandate violates their religious beliefs.

Recently, the president chose to fold rather than to continue a legal battle to prove that Tyndale House Publishers, a Bible publisher, isn't religious enough for the religious exemption from the abortion-pill mandate within ObamaCare. At the government's own request, a federal appellate court dismissed the Obama Administration's appeal of an order that stopped the president from enforcing his abortion-pill mandate against Tyndale House.

However, the Obama Administration is continuing to deny that same relief to millions of Americans nationwide. The HHS Mandate continues to divide Americans by deciding who is "religious enough" to deserve an exemption. This creates a tiered system for religious freedom - not at all what was envisioned by the Founding Fathers. The free exercise of religion is an individual right.
