Abstract
- Although the stated purpose of a new bill in the U.S. Congress is to assure emergency contraception for sexual assault victims, its real aim seems to be to pursue the narrow agenda of the pro-abortion lobby, according to Michael D. Place, the president and CEO of the Catholic Health Association. He said that agenda is focused on eroding the protection of human life by defining life as beginning only with implantation and infringing on the religious freedom of Catholic health care and others of good will who wish to care for women and others in accord with their beliefs or deeply held values.
