Corzine Trying To Force Catholic Doctors To Perform Abortions

This is absolutely sick and abhorrent. Kudos to Assemblyman Donohue for bringing this to light. (h/t SaveJersey)
OCEAN CITY -- Republican State Assembly candidate Michael John Donohue, in a Monday, Feb. 9 release, called on Gov. Jon Corzine to abandon a lawsuit filed by the state to force Catholic hospitals, among others, to perform abortions against their conscience.
Speaking over the weekend to a group of pro-life advocates in here, Donohue said the suit is a waste of taxpayers' money.
"Current federal regulations allow health care providers opposed to abortion to not offer those services. Existing services are unaffected. Gov.Corzine's lawsuit seeks to force people to perform abortions against their will and beliefs."
Donohue suggested that, instead, the state should be spending that money suing the federal government to collect the costs incurred by the state related to illegal aliens.
"Instead of pursuing this radical far-left agenda, Gov. Corzine should instruct the Attorney General to sue the federal government for reimbursement of the costs New Jersey taxpayers shell out for illegal aliens," Donohue stated.
"It costs the taxpayers of New Jersey over $2 billion a year for education, health care and incarceration of illegal aliens. This is a problem largely caused by the federal government. Let us stop suing the federal government to force Catholic hospitals to perform abortions and let us bring a lawsuit to recoup that $2 billion," Donohue stated.
