Supreme Court: Religious rights trump birth control rule

July 01, 2014

A sharply divided Supreme Court ruled Monday that some companies with religious objections can avoid the contraceptives requirement in President Barack Obama's health care overhaul, the first time the high court has declared that businesses can hold religious views under federal law. The White House said the decision creates health risks for women. Hobby Lobby co-founder Barbara Green called the court's decision a victory for "all who seek to live out their faith."
