RESPECT LIFE
The HHS mandate has been misrepresented in the media giving truth a backseat as blatant error misleads the public on this important issue for our religious liberty. Truth should not be a secret! “ Myth #1: 28 states – more than half - in the country have laws with contraception coverage mandates. Truth: The federal mandate actually goes much deeper. It states where there are mandates religious organizations can simply opt out by self-insuring or dropping prescription drug coverage. The federal mandate does not allow any of these alternatives, and does not protect our religious liberty.” Visit www.thebecketfund.org for The Truth Should Not Be A Secret.

Please continue to send messages to your U.S. Senators and Representatives urging them to co-sponsor the Respect for Rights of Conscience Act (H.R. 1179/S.1467).

HHS facts, “ Myth #2: If you receive federal funding, you have to comply by federal rules. You can’t have your cake and eat it, too!” Truth: The mandate forces every group health plan in America to cover these drugs whether the group gets federal funding or not. There is no opt-out. The government is making religious groups choose between offering services they believe to be immoral or closing their doors. That would be the terrible consequences of withdrawing charitable religious organizations from our country’s social safety net. Who will bear the brunt of this backwards policy? The poor, the homeless, the sick and the hungry.” Visit www.thebecketfund.org for The Truth Should Not Be A Secret.
