Take Action: Tell ACOG, Don't Back Down!

Posted: 04/07/2008

The American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology(ACOG) is currently a target of criticism from a group of anti-choice doctors who want ACOG to weaken their stance on conscientious refusals

ACOG currently requires conscientious refusals. This means that doctors who will not provide abortions or contraceptive services must still offer their patients medically accurate information on reproductive health as well as referrals for patients who wish to pursue these services. Health and Human Services Secretary Mike Leavitt has expressed "strong concern" over conscientious refusals which has spurred anti-choice physicians to pressure ACOG to weaken their conscientious refusal standards.
