Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Yes now let's keep reading.
In other words, everyone else also has to report if they find out through privileged information, like a patient talking about abusing/being abused to their doctor, too.
That thing there just makes it so that clergy can't hide behind their role as supervisors of an organization without making, say, the person running a local red cross or soccer club a mandatory reporter. It is very poorly worded and that is what they will pounce on. But be for real.
Right, I see the point now. They definitely should've worded it differently.
I don't know, though, it just seems like it's likely that the USCCB will be able to get this struck down.
Oh they probably will. Especially with this supreme court. Had I made this law I would have specified that anyone covered under (A) cannot get out of their responsibility by citing that they acquired privileged information through a different role. But the damage is done with the wording.
