From The Becket Fund:
Today's myth: Because religious organizations who want to opt-out of the HHS mandate receive federal funding, they must play by government rules. True or false? Watch the video and find out!
Myth #2: "If you receive federal funding you have to comply by federal rules. You can't have your cake and eat it too!"
Truth: The mandate forces every group health plan in America to cover these drugs whether the group gets federal funds or not. There is no opt-out. The government is making religious groups choose between offering services they believe to be immoral or keeping their doors open. That would have the terrible consequences of withdrawing charitable religious organizations from our country's social safety net. Who will bear the brunt of this backwards policy? The poor, the homeless, the sick and the hungry.
