California Forces Faith-Based Employers To Pay For Abortions

Luke 17:28-30 “Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built” but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

The state of California is forcing all faith-based employers to pay for abortions.

The California Department of Managed Health Care told insurance companies in the state all abortions must be covered.  Michelle Rouillard, director of DMHC, said that “abortion is a basic health care service.”

Rouillard asserts that the California constitution prohibits health plans from “discriminating against women who choose” to kill their babies via abortion.

The directive is seen as a state agent acting to penalize two Roman Catholic/Jesuit universities that said they would no longer pay for abortions in health care plans but would not stop employees from obtaining it from third parties.

The Alliance Defending Freedom and the Life Legal Defense Foundation sent rebuttal letters on Friday saying the state’s mandate is a violation of federal law. The letter says that DMHC’s action is violation of the Weldon Amendment.
