Rep. Comer accuses Sec. Becerra of 'attacking' religious liberty, vows action after internal HHS memo revealed
Fox News
House Committee on Oversight and Reform Ranking Member James Comer. R-Ky., told Fox News in an exclusive statement said it's “no surprise” that HHS is planning to roll back religious liberty protections.
In October 2017, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions provided executive agencies with a long list of guidelines on the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), free exercise claims, contraception in insurance plans and other issues in response to President Trump's executive order demanding action on the issue. As a result, HHS granted OCR the authority in December 2017 to, among other things, conduct RFRA compliance reviews and "initiate such other actions as may be necessary to facilitate and ensure compliance with RFRA."
