This is a very, very important move. As NRLC president Carol Tobias explained
“We commend the Trump Administration for creating a new Conscience and Religious Freedom Division within its Office for Civil Rights that will focus on enforcement of and compliance with existing laws that protect conscience.
“We are pleased to see this new division in the face of a growing number of actions by some state governments to compel participation in abortions by health care providers and others, and because the Obama Administration had effectively adopted a non-enforcement policy with respect to existing federal conscience-protection laws.
“Rights of conscience are extremely important to the right-to-life movement to protect medical professionals, religious institutions, and employers from being forced to participate in abortion.”
