Three Articles for Research Paper

Reno Gazette-Journal: Health-care rule violates the U.S. Constitution

http://www.thetowntalk.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201202100245/OPINION/202100314


Summary: This article is basically saying that the new healthcare rule that requires birth control to be included with insurance goes against the First Amendment and that the Federal Government has no right to go against the freedom of religion. This healthcare bill is not an argument about abortion, it is about the fact that the government is telling the church to do something that goes against the Constitution.


Washington Post Opinion Article by Charles Krauthammer


Summary: President Obama's accommodations was merely just an accounting trick and it still forces Catholics and all other religious institutions to provide medical insurance that guarantees free birth control. Now this is important too because with this new mandate if birth control was required to be given out for free then that is another huge financial burden for private businesses to give away free services. This article also lists out Constitutional wreckage left by Obamacare. 



Washington Post: you cant compromise on religious liberty


Summary: This article is talking about how the liberal government needs to keep religion out of politics. This healthcare grants broad administrative regulatory authority that bypasses congress. The Obama Administration's Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) did nothing to fix the unconstitutional part that people are forced to pay for birth control in the new "accommodations" it was just merely worded differently. This is not just an assault on Catholics, it's an assault on all 
religious institutes.
