US citizens: oppose plans to let corporations claim to have "religious beliefs" and use them as an excuse to exclude birth control coverage from employees' medical plans.

The proposed new rule about insurance and birth control pretends to promote religious freedom, but actually it is religious tyranny to allow company executives to decide for their own (real or pretend) religious reasons what medical care their employees' insurance can cover.
