Michigan Preparing To Let Doctors Refuse To Treat Gays


(Lansing, Michigan) Doctors or other health care providers could not be disciplined or sued if they refuse to treat gay patients under legislation passed Wednesday by the Michigan House.

The bill allows health care workers to refuse service to anyone on moral, ethical or religious grounds.

The Republican dominated House passed the measure as dozens of Catholics looked on from the gallery. The Michigan Catholic Conference, which pushed for the bills, hosted a legislative day for Catholics on Wednesday at the state Capitol.

The bills now go the Senate, which also is controlled by Republicans.

The Conscientious Objector Policy Act would allow health care providers to assert their objection within 24 hours of when they receive notice of a patient or procedure with which they don't agree. However, it would prohibit emergency treatment to be refused.

Three other three bills that could affect LGBT health care were also passed by the House Wednesday which would exempt a health insurer or health facility from providing or covering a health care procedure that violated ethical, moral or religious principles reflected in their bylaws or mission statement.

Opponents of the bills said they're worried they would allow providers to refuse service for any reason. For example, they said an emergency medical technicians could refuse to answer a call from the residence of gay couple because they don't approve of homosexuality.

Rep. Chris Kolb (D-Ann Arbor) the first openly gay legislator in Michigan, pointed out that while the legislation prohibits racial discrimination by health care providers, it doesn't ban discrimination based on a person's sexual orientation.

"Are you telling me that a health care provider can deny me medical treatment because of my sexual orientation? I hope not," he said.

"I think it's a terrible slippery slope upon which we embark," said Rep. Jack Minore (D-Flint) before voting against the bill.

Paul A. Long, vice president for public policy for the Michigan Catholic Conference, said the bills promote the constitutional right to religious freedom.

"Individual and institutional health care providers can and should maintain their mission and their services without compromising faith-based teaching," he said in a written statement.

The thread starter is american, so are the beastie boys on whose forum you are posting that.

Your statement is more idiotic and discriminatory than that proposed bill, which is saying something.

Did you really not notice that while attempting to castigate Americans for being cultrally insensitive and ignorant, you were just that?

I think it was Blightly who always said "You become what you fight".

i never preached all men are created equal.
i never enshrined liberty and justice into law.
i never pissed away immense potential for greatness because greed overtook my reasoning.
i never turned a blind eye to my brutality abroad and negligence at home.
i don't spend more money than everyone else combined on war machines, nor do i sell and export more than the rest while chanting about peace and democracy.
you're the one not doing anything to stop these sonsabitches in power...i'm just venting my anger at one more outrageous event in the world's leading power.

Or you're just being a hypocritical dumbass.

Saying you hate these people becuause they are blind and stereotypical than turning around and being blindly stereotypical towards them does NOTHING to further your own ends or, presumable, this great liberal undertaking spearheaded by your posts on an internet message board.

And I am doing something to stop the guys in power. In fact, I want to take most of their power away. You're the one who wants to give Uncle Sam (Or whatever in the hell you call your government) more power and influence over our daily lives.

Don't bitch at me.

Atleast when my stereotypical comments are funny... sometimes.
