Catholic Charities, Catholic Health Association challenge HHS mandate

Catholic Charities, Catholic Health Association challenge HHS mandate  Oddly enough, my then fiance got contraceptive coverage from Catholic Charities USA's insurance policy even before the EEOC made them do it.  More oddly, most policies written today for CCUSA, its member agencies and Catholic Health members also already include contraceptive coverage - which has been mandatory since December 2000.  They are clearly making nice with the bishops.  My question is if the bishops are aware that the status quo is coverage and has been since 2000.  If so, they are deliberately causing scandal by attacking an administration that is not really moving the chains to terribly much on this issue.

  1. SO...Catholic Charities and CHA are largely alreadcy covering contraception? if so, why would they put up this kind of post? Are they that hypocritical?

  2. They are covering themselves with the bishops, who may or may not have been aware that this was occurring under the radar.
