Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius stands next to President Barack Obama in the Oval Office at the White House in Washington in this Oct. 31, 2011, file photo. U.S. bishops continue to lambast the Obama administration for repeatedly denying requests from Catholic bishops, hospitals, schools and charitable organizations to revise its religious exemption to the requirement that all health plans cover contraceptives and sterilization free of charge. Sebelius announced Jan. 20 that nonprofit groups that do not provide contraceptive coverage because of their religious beliefs will have an additional year “to adapt” to the new rule.
