Supreme Court Upholds Religious Exemption Rule On Contraceptives

The High Court upheld a Trump administration rule allowing employers with religious or moral objections to opt out of providing free birth control under the Affordable Care Act. This issue dates back to a 2014 ruling that exempted companies like Hobby Lobby. The Obama administration responded with a rule for religious groups to notify the government for direct contraceptive coverage, but some groups objected. In 2017, Trump expanded the exemption, which was challenged but upheld by the High Court.
