Clouding their agenda

To the editor:

Liberal authorities have created the so-called “Republican war on women” as a diversion; an attempt to cloud an attack to the First Amendment.

The issue arose from mandating religious-based hospitals provide contraceptive and abortion services, regardless of doctrinal belief or personal conscience.

While all have differing beliefs, when one organization has been mandated to violate conscience, it endangers us all. Contraceptive access has not been in danger, but attacks to the First Amendment endanger the religious freedom of us all.
