I thought I was going to post this yesterday, got interrupted and never got back, but someone called last night to tell me the title published alone.
Sorry! This is time sensitive too. This bill will be voted on tonight, so if you want your opinion to be counted in this it has to be within the next 12 hours.
President Obama is planning to rescind the rules on conscience exemptions put in place by President Bush.
This will affect medical professionals who decline to do a procedure because of personal moral, religious or ethical codes.
Thirty six Senators have written a letter to the President outlining the reasons medical professionals should not be coerced into performing procedures against their own consciences.
I feel almost overwhelmingly grateful to them for continuing to fight for American rights and freedoms when there is such an overwhelming tide against them. They signed the letter so you can check to see if your Senators are represented. My letter today will be to thank John McCain for signing this letter to the President.

I left a comment here at A Doctor's Right to add one more digit to the number, and I'm posting this hoping others will do the same today. It's a quick and easy way to stand up and be counted.
God Bless America!
