Rights of Conscience Live Blog – TODAY!

UPI’s Voice of Young Voters will be hosting a Live Blog, December 30, on the controversial “rights of conscience” ruling. This rule, recently issued by the Bush administration, enhances the abilities of health care providers to refuse services, such as abortion, based on their personal religious and moral beliefs.

The ruling has spurred contentious debate, with 13 state attorney generals joining Connecticut AG Richard Blumenthal in opposing the rule. Health and Human Services Secretary Michael Leavitt defended the ruling, saying that “doctors and other health care providers should not be forced to choose between good professional standing and violating their conscience.”

Join the Voice of Young Voters featured bloggers, for a rousing live discussion of the rights of conscience. The Live Blog will begin at 6 pm EST on Tuesday, December 30.

    Hi nice post, i have come across your site once before when searching for something so i was just wondering something. I love your theme, would it happen to be a free one i can download, or is it a custom one you had made? In a few months i may get my own domain, but i don’t know how to setup themes so i don’t mind paying someone to make me a nice one and set it all up. Do you know any good WordPress designer companies, thanks for your help. 🙂
