"Genuine health care reform that protects the life and dignity of all is a moral imperative and a vital national obligation."

--Bishop William F. Muprhy, Chairman of the USCCB Committee on Domestic Justice & Human Development

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops' position on Health Care reform includes:

• A truly universal health policy with respect for human life and dignity

• Access for all with a special concern for the poor and inclusion of legal immigrants

• Pursuing the common good and preserving pluralism including freedom of conscience and variety of options

• Restraining costs and applying them equitably across the spectrum of payers.
