Members of the Catholic Church say the President is infringing on their
religious freedom. They say "Obamacare" will force employers, including
Catholic schools and hospitals, to provide birth control and
abortion-inducing drugs, which they say is against their faith. Bishop
William Medley along with several other spoke at Friday's event, saying
people need to stand up to Washington.
"I think so many people are not aware of the religious freedom issue right now. We're in very desperate times, and I don't think people realize that. So we have a big mission to educate," said event co-organizer Rachel Evans.
"We're trying to make sure that people understand we're not trying to impose our views on others, we're simply standing up for our First Amendment Right to live by our moral compass," event co-organizer Birgit Jones said.
Friday's event coincides with the 223rd anniversary of the day James Madison introduced the Bill of Rights to the First Congress.
