C. Ben Mitchell, a scholar in bioethics and once a professor of mine, is honored to give the opening statement before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform hearing. He makes a good point in that, even if you're pro-contraception or pro-choice, it's a spooky thing to have laws that coerce an individual's conscience.
“Contrary to the portrayals in some of the popular media, this is not just a Catholic issue. All people of faith, and even those who claim no faith, have a stake in whether or not the government can violate the consciences of its citizenry.”
