We, the voting citizens of your district, would like to express our concern over the HHS mandate. We represent a diverse group of citizens of good will from various religions and backgrounds. We are informed women and men well aware of all controversies over this mandate.
Our Constitution requires a broad religious freedom that is being violated by this mandate. Individuals cannot practice their religious freedom if they are forced by the federal government to cover or pay for drugs and devices that go against deep moral or religious convictions.
This issue is important to Oregonians and to Americans. As voting citizens of your district, we ask you to please co-sponsor and support the Respect for Rights of Conscience Act (H.R. 1179, S. 1467). The Obama administration’s decision to mandate coverage of sterilization and contraceptives, including drugs that can cause an abortion, makes passage of this measure especially urgent. Please ensure that the religious liberty and conscience rights of all participants in our nation’s health care system are respected.
Thank you,

PROTECT OUR CONSCIENCE RIGHTS NOW. Not another dime of mine should go to this garbage.
Its pretty simple. If it goes against my beliefs I shouldnt be forced by the feds to fund it.
Religious freedom is the bedrock of this country. Why is this so hard for them to understand?
totally agree. this mandate is completely out of line and goes against everything we were raised to believe.
The government has no right to demand we pay for things that violate our conscience. Leave our religious rights alone!
