Headlines US Catholic Bishops Announce Plans to Stand United and Resist the Coercive HHS Mandate By Deacon Keith Fournier | November 14, 2013 With its coercive HHS mandate, the government is refusing to uphold its obligation to respect the rights of religious believers. Beginning in March 2012, in United for Religious Freedom, we identified three basic problems with the HHS mandate: it establishes a false architecture of religious liberty that excludes our ministries and so reduces freedom of religion to freedom of worship; it compels our ministries to participate in providing employees with abortifacient drugs and devices, sterilization, and contraception, which violates our deeply-held beliefs; and it compels our faithful people in business to act against our teachings, failing to provide them any exemption at all.

Election of Abp Kurtz and Cdl DiNardo Reaffirms Leadership on Life, Marriage and Religious Freedom By Deacon Keith Fournier | November 14, 2013 The election of Archbishop Kurtz and Cardinal DiNardo reaffirms the leadership of the Catholic Church on Life, Religious Freedom and Marriage at a critical time in our history.

By Obianuju Ekeocha | November 14, 2013 It is very disturbing to see how, in more recent years , there has been a bolder and stronger insistence by International Abortion industry to bring Abortion into African countries (against the will and ways of the African people) that have historically valued and cherished human life from conception to natural death. It is also painful to see that in most (if not all) cases, the pro-abortion voices and interest groups that are raised in Africa have been easily linked or traced to wealthy American or European based organizations that are bent on spreading the scourge of Abortion throughout the world.
