Column: Contraception Fight Not Just ‘A Catholic Thing’
Wheaton College, a school that has “long been regarded as a flagship college of Protestant evangelicals,” joined Catholic organizations in their lawsuit against the HHS mandate, John Inazu writes for USA Today. Wheaton is signaling “to evangelicals that the contraception mandate is not just ‘a Catholic thing,’ but a threat to their freedom as well.” “The legal challenges implicate an interest that all of us … should value and safeguard: the right of private groups to dissent from the prevailing state orthodoxy,” Inazu argues.
