http://health.webmd.com/cgi-bin21/DM/y/e4KN0NedAu0IfV0BaZE0EK

President Bush Issues Health Rule
http://health.webmd.com/cgi-bin21/DM/y/e4KN0NedAu0IfV0BaaN0Ea
Why It Matters:
A new federal rule initiated by the Bush administration reinforces
protections for doctors and other health care workers who refuse to

objections. Several lawmakers are already working on a bill to undo
the rule change.
