Numerous Republican-governed states are imposing tough bans on abortion. But there's also rising concern in Democratic-led states that options for reproductive health care are dwindling as Catholic hospital networks expand.

“We need to ensure that any new ownership can provide a full range of care — including reproductive health care, family planning, gender-affirming care and end-of-life care,” said Connecticut Attorney General William Tong, a Democrat.

“This commitment is rooted in our reverence for life, from conception to natural death,” Haddad said via email. “As a result, Catholic hospitals do not offer elective abortions.” “It’s the bishop, not professional standards, that are dictating who can receive what health care,” Wiener said. “That is scary.”

As for abortions, Kramer said Day Kimball had never performed them for the sole purpose of ending a pregnancy and would continue that policy if partnering with Covenant. “Very important articles of faith that Catholics may have, and I respect completely, shouldn’t impact the quality of health care that is available to the public,” she said.—In Washington, Democratic state Sen. Emily Randall plans to re-introduce a bill that would empower the attorney general to block hospital mergers and acquisitions if they jeopardize “the continued existence of accessible, affordable health care, including reproductive health care.” Gov.

—In Newport Beach, California, Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian divorced itself from a large Catholic health system earlier this year. The separation from Providence Health & Services, which runs 52 hospitals across seven states, came after a years-long legal battle.

As a catholic, I believe the church should stay in the church, not in hospitals or schools. I hope the close down all of them and new ones are built to accommodate everyone.

Also glad when the Catholics want to hold your hand and show you the way.

Want to operate a hospital? Cool. NO RELIGIOUS EXEMPTION FOR ANYTHING.

Catholicism is against abortion but it does make exceptions to save the life of the mother. These attacks on them are regurgitations of nativist, Klan, and Republican attacks against “papists”, aka the religion of the immigrants. American Catholicism does not support MAGA.

Just look at those ladies! 😂 I think Amish Women look hotter! 😂

“Catholic hospital” what a ridiculous oxymoron

So wonderful to see America return to the traditional Christian values that made it great in the first place.
