Romney Looking for Church Exemption

Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is drafting a bill for an exemption to Catholic Charities that would allow the organization to continue to uphold its practices of placing children with parents that consist of one father and one mother. (Crazy thought.) Of the 720 children Catholic Charities has placed over the past 20 years, only 13 have been placed with gay couples as a last resort.

My question is this: since abortion is legal in the state, will Massachusetts begin forcing Catholic-run hospitals to peform them too?
