DC’s Newly Elected Mayor Signs Anti-Catholic Bills

A while back, I wrote to you about a bill which passed the DC Council.  Now, Mayor Bowser has signed two bills:

Reproductive Health Non-Discrimination Amendment Act, which could coerce religious organizations to work with and hire those in favor of abortion and force employers to cover elective abortions in their health plans

Human Rights Amendment (don’t you just love how they use language to hide their motives) repeals an exemption that protected religious schools and universities from approving or funding homosexual advocacy.

For more, go to The Cardinal Newman Society:  http://www.cardinalnewmansociety.org/CatholicEducationDaily/DetailsPage/tabid/102/ArticleID/3918/Mayor-Signs-Coercive-Bills-Damaging-Religious-Freedom-of-D-C-Catholic-Schools-Colleges.aspx



PS:  I wonder if we will see anything about this in the Catholic Standard.
