Football family. University of Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh is standing by his strong stance against abortion.
After speaking at a Right to Life event in Plymouth, Michigan, earlier this month, the 58-year-old reiterated that he disagrees with terminating an unwanted pregnancy. “Let’s discuss it,” he told ESPN‘s Gene Wojciechowski on Saturday, July 23. “I’ve told [them] the same thing I tell my kids, boys, the girls, same thing I tell our players, our staff members. I encourage them if they have a pregnancy that wasn’t planned, to go through with it, go through with it. Let that unborn child be born.”
Harbaugh continued, “And if at that time, you don’t feel like you can care for it, you don’t have the means or the wherewithal, then [my wife] Sarah and I will take that baby. … We got a big house. We’ll raise that baby.”
The married couple both attended the Right to Life dinner and auction on July 17, earning praise from local religious leaders for their remarks. “I believe in having the courage to let the unborn be born,” Harbaugh told the crowd at the event. “I love life. I believe in having a loving care and respect for life and death. My faith and my science are what drive these beliefs in me.”
The former quarterback went on to argue that the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which provided protections for safe abortion access nationwide, was the right choice “for all lives involved.”
Harbaugh added, “Yes, there are conflicts between the legitimate rights of the mother and the rights of the unborn child. One resolution might involve incredible hardship for the mother, family and society. Another results in the death of an unborn person.”

OSF HealthCare, a Catholic hospital system out of Illinois, has restricted the employee health plan benefits it offers to LGBTQ employees.The health care system changed its policy by narrowing the insurance plan’s definition of “infertility” from any person unable to get pregnant to “the inability for a married couple of opposite sex spouses to conceive.” According to Bloomberg News, OSF HealthCare has characterized the policy shift as attempting to “assist married opposite sex spouses” in conceiving a child.OSF HealthCare operates around 147 medical facilities in Illinois and Michigan, with over 24,000 employees. By amending the definition of fertility, only straight people — more accurately, employees in opposite-sex relationships — will be able to have their fertility treatments covered by their employee health care plan.Given the Catholic Church’s stance on homosexuality and marriage, it is not surprising to see religious institutions or religiously-affiliated employers adopting policies that exclude LGBTQ individuals from benefits typically offered to married couples.Critics were quick to denounce OSF HealthCare’s new policy, arguing that an employer is not denying treatment to some of its workers due to “objections to the treatment they are seeking” — as it might in the case of an abortion or gender confirmation surgery — but merely due to their LGBTQ identity.Peter Romer-Friedman, an attorney who is representing a same-sex male couple who claims they were denied coverage for in vitro fertilization under New York City’s health insurance plan, told Bloomberg that he believes OSF HealthCare’s actions are a clear “violation” of federal workplace discrimination.
