President Donald Trump Finalizes Rule Confirming Abortion is Not a Human Right

lifenews:

The Trump administration finalized another pro-life regulation Monday, this one to clarify that the definition of sex discrimination in Obamacare does not include abortions.

The new rule officially ends a 2016 regulation from the Obama administration that could have forced medical workers to help abort unborn babies. It restores the government’s interpretation of sex discrimination to “the plain meaning … as determined by biology,” according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

“HHS respects the dignity of every human being, and as we have shown in our response to the pandemic, we vigorously protect and enforce the civil rights of all to the fullest extent permitted by our laws as passed by Congress,” said Roger Severino, director of the Office for Civil Rights at HHS. “We are unwavering in our commitment to enforcing civil rights in healthcare.”

In 2016, the Obama administration redefined sex discrimination under Obamacare to include “termination of pregnancy.” Federal courts struck down the regulation, but it still was on the books. The Trump administration’s action Monday repeals the unconstitutional regulation.

Pro-life leaders praised President Donald Trump’s continued actions for life. MORE

  1. Yay babies indeed, my 3rd granddaughter turned 1 on Monday, her older sister will be 4 on Sunday and my son and his wife and a few others will be having a small birthday party for both of them on Saturday. It’s a great thing to be a grandfather.
