"GOP adds 'conscience clause' to spending bill"

[pangaia]

BOLD is MINE--

Washington (CNN) - House Republicans have added a measure aimed at limiting contraceptive coverage to the spending bill coming up for a vote Saturday night, a spokesman for Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kansas, told CNN.

A senior House leadership aide confirmed that development.

The so-called “conscience clause” would allow employers and insurers to opt out of preventative care for women which they find objectionable on moral or religious grounds. That prominently includes birth control, which most insurers are required to provide for free under current Obamacare rules.

It's those gosh darn women again....

I have 2 ideas for a 'conscience clause'..
1-No more cialis or viagra for CEOs over 50.
2- Any male voting for this is required to undergo sterilization.

When I saw the Conscience Clause I thought it meant you couldn't have one if you wanted to deny health care to people.
