The Conscience Clause
We discuss the debate surrounding President Obama's move to rescind the so-called 'conscience rule' which the Bush administration imposed at the end of Bush's term. The rule prevents medical professionals from having to perform procedures they disagree with on moral or religious grounds.
Host: Dave Iverson
Guests:
- Alta Charo, professor of law and bioethics at the University of Wisconsin
- Gene Rudd, medical doctor and senior vice president of the Christian Medical and Dental Associations
- Mina Kim, independent journalist for KQED Public Radio
