TFN President Kathy Miller, on a Trump administration policy that favors health care workers who refuse to do their jobs if they have religious or moral objections to certain services or to the individuals receiving them.
“This policy makes a mockery of religious freedom by turning faith into a weapon to discriminate and harm people simply because of who they are or the health care services they need. It’s outrageous and dangerous to make care for an LGBT person, a woman or anyone else dependent on the personal beliefs of a doctor or emergency care worker rather than on medical necessity.”
