you don't condemn the Catholic Hospitals for their denial of basic health care to people.

And then you say the answer is a politically questionable solution that would be years away, if at all.

Some of these areas are in States that would not even allow the expansion of Medicaid.

How many women's deaths do you think acceptable while your "solution" comes about?

in case you were wondering what the answer is , religion exemptions to health services can't be allowed.
