Hatch, Orrin. "Does the Obama Administration's Contraceptive Coverage Mandate Protect the Constitutional Rights of Religiously Affiliated Employers?" Congressional Digest. April 2012. Points of View Reference Center. Web. October 17.2013.

The Honorable Orrin Hatch discusses the unconstitutionality of the ACA. He does this by pointing out how the act has an amendment in it that allows for female employees to be given birth control. The ACA also mandates that organizations with more than 50 employees must provide health insurance for their workers. So he goes on to say that forcing churches to provide health care that allows them the use of contraceptives is against their freedom of religion under the first amendment. He is basically condemning the bill for this one provision and asking for a call of action from his anyone who will support him.
This is a great editorial source. Hatch is introducing a topic and arguing for his point of view through the use of appeal and persuasion. This works very well for me to present what opposing view point I want to address and pretty much disagree with.
