Florida Senator Marco Rubio is introducing [1]the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 2012, which is designed to provide protections for those religious organizations who have recently had the President tell them that they have one year to prepare themselves to violate their conscience and provide contraception and certain abortion-inducing drugs through a mandate imposed in Obamacare.
Whether someone is religious or not, there is a serious matter of First Amendment rights that needs to be addressed. The President does not have the right to force religious organizations to violate their conscience, and they have no obligation [2]to obey such an order.
Marco Rubio is to be commended for taking the lead on this issue.
