Affordable Care Act's anti-abortion rules need to be enforced | National Catholic Reporter by Fr. Thomas Reese.  MGB: I do hope somebody holds the Department's feet to the fire, although, frankly, the extent to which people will be in exchanges when they were in employer provided insurance is the extent to which this is not an issue (since all, or almost all, employer provided insurance covers abortion - and most don't use the coverage, preferring to keep having this procedure off any insurance record.  It is not hugely expensive unless hospital care is required - and then anyone should cover it because it is probably  a life or death matter.  Still, the bishops were obnoxious in their behavior regarding supporting the GOP in holding up this Law - and downright vengeful against those Sisters that helped it get passed.  So, I will say now what I said then - those of us in the left wing of the Church are going to take a pass on getting excited about this issue.  I know a few members of Congress and the Senate and where their web pages are.  I campaign and have for years, so when I leave a message, someone sees it.  Not on this issue.  Anyone who agrees with me - repost this.  Maybe the bishops will figure out that their hyperpartisanship in our names without our consent matters.
