Catholic Health Association: Census Bureau Report and President Obama Make Strong Case for Bold, Immediate Action on Health Reform
Date:9/10/2009

form that we do everything possible to protect life. We were pleased to hear President Obama make clear last night that health reform will not allow for the federal funding of abortion and will keep in place widely-supported conscience protections for those who refuse to be involved in morally objectionable procedures.

The Catholic health ministry has long championed a health care system that respects human dignity from conception to natural death, providing compassionate and affordable care for everyone who needs it. The Census Bureau findings and the President's speech emphasized what we already know: that the time is now for health reform legislation that is uniquely American and works for all the nation's people.

The Catholic Health Association of the United States (CHA), founded in 1915, supports the Catholic health ministry's commitment to improve the health status of communities and create quality and compassionate health care that works for everyone. The Catholic health ministry is the nation's largest group of not-for-profit health systems and facilities that, along with their sponsoring organizations, employ more than 750,000 women and men who deliver services combining advanced technology with the Catholic caring tradition. For more information, visit the CHA website at www.chausa.org.
