Conservative religious groups hope a new bill filed by U.S. Rep. Diane Black (R-TN) will help them in their fight against the Obama administration’s contraceptive mandate.

Known as the Health Care Conscience Rights Act, the bill would give any individual or group that opposes contraception an automatic exemption.

The bill would also protect health-care workers from having to participate in abortions as part of their work or training.

“I am proud to introduce the Health Care Conscience Rights Act to protect religious freedom, disempower Obamacare, and stop the administration’s assault on Americans’ First Amendment rights,” Black said in a statement.

Diane Black is a United States Representative for Tennessee’s 6th district.

Before being elected as a Representative, Black was a member of Tennessee’s State Senate for the 18th district and was elected Tennessee Senate Republican Caucus Chairman, and served as a state representative for six years.
