In her interview with Kaiser Health News, Sr. Carol Keehan said this:
Now, someone in the Obama White House should ask themselves this question: Has there been any real public discussion about the fact that physicals, mammograms, and colonscopies are now all going to be covered, without co-pays, by the Affordable Care Act? No, of course not, because we have been discussing whether or not the government has the right to force Catholic institutions to pay for procedures and prescriptions the Church deems morally problematic. So, a bit of advice to the White House, HHS, Democrats on Capitol Hill and elsewhere: Stop picking a fight with the Catholic Church, adopt Sr. Carol's proposal for providing universal access to contracpetion (something the current HHS stance does NOT do) and start calling attention to the many good things the Affordable Care Act will accomplish.
