Garnett Responds to MSW on HHS | National Catholic Reporter

Garnett Responds to MSW on HHS | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: The conscience rights of employees are the same as their privacy rights under Griswold v. Connecticut.  Employers have not business taking the place of the state in attempting to deny birth control, especially as the state may not do so and the offering of insurance is now done under state agency.  Indeed, without some kind of legal exception based in the Constitution, it is likely that a private employer could constitutionally deny birth control coverage without violating the employee's privacy rights.  Period and end of discussion.
