Statement from First Liberty Institute Regarding Federal Judge’s Decision to Block Conscience Protections for Health Care Workers
Washington, DC—The following statement may be attributed to Stephanie Taub, Senior Counsel for First Liberty Institute:
“This decision leaves health care professionals across America vulnerable to being forced to perform, facilitate, or refer for procedures that violate their conscience. The Trump Administration’s HHS protections would ensure that healthcare professionals are free to work consistent with their religious beliefs while providing the best care to their patients.”
