Trump Administration Releases Rule Authorizing Discrimination in Health Care, says NWLC
The following is a statement by Fatima Goss Graves, President and CEO of the National Women’s Law Center (NWLC):
“The Trump-Pence Administration will stop at nothing to strip patients of the care they deserve. This rule allows anyone from a doctor to a receptionist to entities like hospitals and pharmacies to deny a patient critical – and sometimes lifesaving – care. Personal beliefs should never determine the care a patient receives. This is a vicious and underhanded attack on the health and lives of patients, particularly targeting women and LGBTQ individuals. We will fight against it until all patients get the care they deserve.”
