IRFA Submits Comment on Contraceptives Mandate Proposed Rules

Last week IRFA submitted a comment to the federal government in response to the early-February Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) about “accommodating” non-exempt religious organizations that object to the HHS contraceptives mandate. The comment is available here.

The comment refers to June 11, 2012, letter to HHS Sec. Sebelius protesting the administration’s two-class scheme of religious organizations, a letter signed by nearly 150 Protestant and Catholic leaders and supporters of a wide range of religious organizations. That letter is available here.
