little2add Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 In a bipartisan 245-182 vote, Congressman on Wednesday passed the Conscience Protection Act, which would provide legal protection to doctors, nurses, hospitals and all health care providers who choose not to provide abortions as part of their health care practice. Amazing! Protecting people from a law suit and other punishment who feel killing an unborn baby is murder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little2add Posted July 17, 2016 Author Share Posted July 17, 2016 In a statement released after introducing the bill, lead sponsor Rep. Fleming said: “As a family practice physician for over 30 years, I know for a fact that doctors and nurses are dedicated medical professionals uniquely qualified to assess the health and wellness needs of their patients. There is no room in the clinic for government discrimination, for Big Brother to force a health care provider to participate, in any way, in an abortion. My legislation offers common sense conscience protections for the front line of the medical profession. From clinician to hospital, from an HMO to insurance coverage, and from a student health plan to a physician in training, [S. 304] protects against forced participation in abortions and provides recourse for victims facing discrimination.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
