The California Supreme Court rejected a lawsuit brought by Catholic missionaries that sought to overturn a state mandate that forces them to pay insurance premiums that subsidize abortions.
The Missionary Guadalupanas of the Holy Spirit, an organization of Catholic women, were told in August by a state appeals court that a woman’s choice to have an abortion must be considered “medically necessary,” reported the San Francisco Chronicle.
In 2014, under Democrat Gov. Jerry Brown, California adopted regulations that state, under Obamacare, all voluntary abortions are “basic health care” and “medically necessary”

No wonder CA has to build a wall to keep people in.
Why don't they just declare Catholics criminal and take all their property?

And they wonder why more people leave than move to that state every year.

It would be wonderful to see every Cathoic health care worker and insurer along with the Catholic clergy "resist" with the same courage as the Hong Kog protesters and refuse to perform abortions -- and march in defiance. Then let's see how the California governor and government look when they have to participate in mass arrests and/or mass anti-religon trials. In addition, lots of us non-Cathocs would march with them to help stop the assault on religious freedom/.

This will end up in SCOTUS. The Kalifornian ruling klass is krazy. Their policies have resulted in destructive wildfires due to hamstringing the power companies with useless legislation, water shortages due to the same, power shortages in an effort to cut down on wildfires caused by faulty power company equipment for reasons already mentioned, a resurgence in Medieval diseases due to insane homeless policies, a wave of property crimes and homicides at the hands of illegal aliens protecteed by'sanctuary city' laws in contravention to federal policy...they are on another world and all those who advocate these policies are insulated from the effects of them because they all live in gated & closed communities protected by armed guards.

Potential culture war? By all the gun smoke I smell,the battle has been raging for a very long time. Thing is, God is watching all of this play out. Since the Left will not acknowledge God, they are just begging for the ultimate war, and trust me, they are not going to like how God chooses to fight it.

What California needs is a state fund financed by a tax on "sex toys" and porn to pay for the abortions denied by people of conscience. Let's see the Republicans put that on the legislative agenda.

For the left, “separation of church and state” is only valid when it enhances their agenda.

I hear that abortions are really cheap in Mexico, and the border is very convenient for California baby killers! No need to hassle Catholics.

NEVER medically necessary, that is a oft-repeated fiction.

Number 2, your statement is only true for American citizens.
There are many low-income housing projects underway all over CA (these projects have been going up for at least 20 years). Housing is a near-crisis. To accommodate illegals, the state overrode local zoning laws in order to allow homes in single-family neighborhoods to be divided into multiple living units, convert garages to living units, etc. Prices of existing homes continue to rise, because buyers or investors can add or subdivide their purchase to rent out, more than covering their mortgage. Illegals double or triple-up to cover the rent. I bought my home 35 years ago. On my short one-block dead-end single-family-home street (21 homes), I know of at least 5 homes that have been converted to multi-family homes; street parking for visitors on my street is now almost non-existent as renters' cars take up all the spaces. After the first conversion, I visited the city zoning dept to complain and was told the state encourages such conversions because of a housing crises and the city was not allowed to enforce single-family zoning. Now the city actively encourages it.
The number of people coming in outnumber those leaving, its just that newly-arriving illegals are not counted in the population migration,.

Yes, # 10 - sometimes there is a medical reason to abort. I do not understand how anyone can think there is never a need for one. Of course there is and if someone needs one, then she should be able to get it. This decision has never belonged to anyone other than the woman involved.

I have trouble buying this story, #12. Might be a 1 in a million, MAYBE. They think ALL are medically necessary, like medical weed, 99.999999% BS, too.

#12 Most women would rather die from the disease rather than take the medicine that would harm or kill their unborn child, that is what unconditional love is all about. Unless they have become so immune or selfish that the death of a child means nothing to them because they believe the lie its just a blob of cells. Lets just call abortions what they really are, infanticide which is the worship of Baal, the real elephant in the room.
