The Erosion of Protection For The Unborn The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is inviting public comment on a proposal to rescind an important December 2008 federal conscience protection regulation. The 2008 regulation implements and enforces three federal laws protecting the conscience rights of health care providers, especially those at risk of being discriminated against because of their moral or religious objection to abortion. Please sign on to the website www.nchla.org click on the tab “Action Alerts” and select Protect Conscience Rights in Health Care: Retain Conscience Regulation (updated on 3/16/2009) At this point choose “Send E-Mail” and the following message will be sent to HHS: “Please retain the conscience regulation, and enforce current laws protecting the right of health-care providers to serve patients without violating their moral and religious convictions. The right of conscience protected by existing federal laws is inviolable. Weakening protection for this right will harm the ethical integrity of our healing professions, drive caring people out of these professions, and reduce patients' access to much-needed basic health care.” Thank you for taking action. If you don’t have internet access, visit a friend who does or go to the public library. “Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom.” Wendell Neugebauer, Pro-Life Chairman There are many opportunities to witness to the sanctity of human life on the streets in front of organizations that perform abortions. Whenever you do witness, remember the words of Jesus and pray for those who curse you.
Please join our Pro-Life witness at Planned Parenthood in Saratoga, on Washington Avenue, from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. every Friday, and at Saratoga Hospital every 3rd Saturday from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. Other witness opportunities can be found at: http://www.citizensconcernedforhumanlife.org Links are provided for reference only.
