STOP THE HHS MANDATE!
On June 8, tens of thousands of faithful citizens will gather in prayer and public witness in cities and towns all across the United States to oppose the HHS Mandate and stand up in defense of our religious freedoms
What is the HHS Mandate?
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has issued a mandate under Obamacare that forces all employer health plans to include free contraceptives, sterilizations and abortion-inducing drugs, regardless of moral or religious objections. Religious employers like Catholic universities and hospitals will be forced to provide services that directly contradict their teachings.

How does the HHS Mandate attack our religious freedoms?
The HHS Mandate provides a "religious exemption" so narrow that it excludes such religious ministries as educating the young, caring for the sick and feeding the hungry. Not only is the federal government requiring employers to violate their convictions, it is claiming the right to decide for religious institutions what constitutes their ministry.
What about the Supreme Court?
The Supreme Court is set to rule on Obamacare at the end of June. Whether the law is upheld or not, we must demand that our health care laws respect religious liberty.
