Today, the Supreme Court ruled against free and comprehensive access to birth control under the Affordable Care Act, a long-term project of the Religious Right and a decision that will immediately prevent hundreds of thousands of women from accessing free reproductive care. The decision upholds a Trump Administration rule that significantly weakens Obama-era regulations—
regulations intended to act as a compromise between opposing sides by providing specific carve-outs for churches and religious organizations. AnyThose ACA rules previously allowed women to have sex without having children, more or less for free. In its decision today, the court held that allowing companies to decline to offer employees birth control on either religious or moral grounds was a reasonable separation of church and state.
Under the Affordable Care Act, churches and synagogues were exempt from providing free contraceptives to their employees should they disagree with birth control on religious grounds,Non-profits, universities, and other religious organizations, while not automatically excused, were allowed to individually opt-out of the program and place the burden of providing reproductive healthcare on an insurance administrator, a practice some claimed was tantamount to endorsing the use of contraceptives...
Say what you want about birth control, but this law just increases freedom. I’m not obligated, as a business owner, to pay for something for which I am morally opposed to. Instead of birth control my company will be offering “keep your pants on” counseling. Quite an idea
SCOTUS you failed all American women today🖕🏻
SHOCKING.
