Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, daughter of an Ohio Democratic Governor, and a former Democratic Governor herself, testified today before the Finance Committee hearing on Capitol Hill (February 15, 2012). The Committee is hearing testimony from Secretary Sebelius on President Obama's FY2013 budget request for the Department of Health and Human Services.
Boy! Talk about top down control.
1) She didn’t consult with the Justice Department about the legality of the mandate.
2) She didn’t consult with Catholic bishops before the Obama administration announced a change in its contraceptive coverage largely meant to appease the bishops.
3) She “assumed” American Civil Liberties Union and Planned Parenthood were consulted, but she didn’t know.
4) She didn’t reply to the 28 members of Congress who contacted her last summer and fall about the contraceptive (aka reproductive health) mandate.
Who does this woman serve? President Obama. Not us. Not the American people.
