White House Finds Way Around Hobby Lobby Birth Control Decision
By trkingmomoe on Sat, 07/11/2015 - 12:09am |This is a big F'ing deal if you are a young women working for Hobby Lobby and any other far right religious owners of a company.
Under the new rule, a closely held for-profit company that objects to covering contraception in its health plan can write a letter to the Department of Health and Human Services stating its objection. HHS will then notify a third-party insurer of the company's objection, and the insurer will provide birth control coverage to the company's female employees at no additional cost to the company.
I think this ties in nicely with what Dr. Cleveland said about having a good lame duck term. He signed the new rules today. Thank you Mr. President.
