On Wednesday, several nurses spoke publicly in favor of the Conscience Protection Act of 2017, legislation sponsored by Rep. Diane Black (R-TN), which “would allow health-care providers like nurses and doctors to sue if they’re coerced into participating in abortions or if they face discrimination at work for refusing to do so,” reports The Hill.
It would also provide legal recourse for hospitals, health systems, religious charities, churches and insurance companies who are required to participate in or provide coverage for abortion.
