White House Misrepresents Catholic Charities' Position on Contraceptive Mandate

From The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform web site:

Event: 'Lines Crossed: Separation Of Church & State. Has The Obama Admin. Trampled On Freedom Of Religion?'

Congressman Darrell Issa will hold hearings on the contraceptive mandate. Among other things Congressman Issa needs to ask is why the Obama administration is deliberately misrepresenting Catholic Charities position on its web site. Catholic Charities has responded:

In response to a great number of mischaracterizations in the media, Catholic Charities USA wants to make two things very clear:

1. We have not endorsed the accommodation to the HHS mandate that was announced by the Administration last Friday.

2. We unequivocally share the goal of the US Catholic bishops to uphold religious liberty and will continue to work with the USCCB towards that goal.

Any representation to the contrary is false.
