Three Jewish, Evangelical, and Catholic co-authors address why the debate over the HHS mandate is not at root about contraceptives or the Catholic Church but, instead, a fundamental debate about religious liberty. Rabbi Meir Soloveichik, evangelical leader Charles Colson, and Cardinal Donald Wuerl point out how George Washington’s famous 1790 letter to a New York synagogue regarding religious liberty stands in direct contrast to HHS Secretary Sebelius’s claim that the value of religious liberty must be “balanced” against the administration’s policy preferences.
