Willingness to commit an abortion cannot be a litmus test for employment, said ADF Senior Counsel Steven H. Aden. If Obama has his way abortion will be the litmus test for any involvement in the medical field.

The only right that the liberals believe is absolute is the right of a woman to murder her unborn children without legal consequences.

I’d bet that about 80% of the “health” matters at the federally-funded “health center” are abortions, just because of the vague name.

Isn't this sort of the flip side of Hobby Lobby? Menaing, if the Tampa Family Health Centers believes in prescribing hormonal contraceptives, why should they be forced to hire a provider who does not?
To: wagglebee
The clinic really screwed the pooch by revealing why she was rejected from employment. Most employers will just say they found an applicant that better met their needs for the position at this time.

The reason the liberals can believe that, is that our judicial system supports them in that conviction.
Haven’t we always proudly maintained that America is a country of laws?
Our judicial system is the weakest and most vulnerable link in the chain.

Menaing, if the Tampa Family Health Centers believes in prescribing hormonal contraceptives, why should they be forced to hire a provider who does not? No. Conditions for employment is quite different from the concept of forcing employers to provide certain free things as part of their compensation packages.
To: 353FMG
That is in part because we have federal judges that are appointed for life and are basically unaccountable to anyone for whatever they do.

Hobby Lobby objected to PAYING FOR exactly FOUR ABORTIFACIENTS and they DID NOT OBJECT to paying for all contraceptives (including the Pill). They DID NOT refuse to hire people who used these abortifacients, they just wouldn't pay for them.
This "health center" refused to hire a nurse-midwife (not even an MD or PA who would be prescribing contraceptives), because of her beliefs.
There is a huge difference and your post reeks of concern trolling.

whether we like it or not, the litmus test is now on anyone covered under Obamacare - $$ are assessed in your monthly premium for the abortion drugs covered under Obamacare.
To: Conscience of a Conservative; wagglebee; xzins
You need to educate yourself about the difference between a contaceptive and an abortifacient.
If you know the difference then you favor forcing Christians to participate in abortions in order to get or keep their jobs in the Health Care field.
In that case, you are posting on the wrong forum.

Is Hobby Lobby funded by the government?

Since Hobby Lobby is about the religious free exercise of the closely held corporation, then for this to be related, Tampa Health would have had to have claimed a religious exemption.
Did they?
Of course, if they receive any form of government money, then they cannot make any rule/law regarding their view on religion.

FWIW, I remember an article about a year ago in which a university was denying entry to a masters or doctorate program in counseling, I believe, because the candidate had beliefs against both abortion and homosexuality.
I think it was a public university, but most universities with few exceptions receive government money.
