Protect Conscience Rights and Religious Liberty: Urge Congressional Support for H.R. 940

The Obama Administration's contraceptive / abortifacient / sterilization mandate will begin to be enforced against nonprofit religious schools, charities and health care providers on August 1.  In the days to come, Congress must decide whether to address this problem through must-pass legislation before that deadline.

Members of the House should be urged to include the Health Care Conscience Rights Act (H.R. 940) in the next bill needed to keep the federal government operating.
