Expell the Students and VOILA! Problem Solved!
.-
The University of Notre Dame’s refusal to pay for drugs that can cause
early abortions will face further litigation in court, after a federal
judge in Indiana allowed a lawsuit to challenge an agreement between the
university and the Trump administration.
“Notre Dame stands on firm legal and moral ground in refusing to subsidize the limited number of contraceptive products that can act as abortifacients and harm an unborn child,” Paul Browne, vice president of public affairs and communications at the University of Notre Dame, said in a Jan. 20 letter to the editor of the Notre Dame Observer, a student-run newspaper.
U.S. District Court Judge Philip Simon rejected the university’s motions to dismiss the case on Jan. 16. A pretrial conference is scheduled for early March, the South Bend Tribune reports.
The lawsuit, filed in June 2018, charges that the Catholic university’s failure to provide abortifacient drugs violates a federal requirement dating back to 2012 holding that employer health plans must provide contraceptive coverage.
The lawsuit comes from a group of students allied with national pro-abortion rights NGOs.
