we need a MED act.

Every American has their Constitutional right to operate according to their moral, ethical, and religious beliefs, and medical professionals are no different. There has been an attack on the ethics and personal beliefs of medical professionals, driving out doctors, nurses and other entities from medical practice, and this bill would shield them from discrimination while stopping the hemorrhage of people leaving the profession.

The Medical Ethics Defense Act (H819 and S641) protects the conscience rights of medical practitioners and healthcare entities for procedures that violate their moral, ethical, or religious beliefs and protects them from discrimination, punishment, or retaliation due to exercising the right of conscience.

Dear Neighbor,

The Medical Ethics Defense (MED) Act establishes the right of a medical practitioner, healthcare institution or healthcare payer not to participate in or pay for any medical procedure or service that violates, his, her or its conscience. It is a simple and reasonable protection for our healthcare heroes in the face of attacks from the government, health care agencies and medical schools.

Do you believe your Representatives should pass legislation like the MED Act (H819 and S641)?
