Biden Threatens to Overturn Contraceptive Mandate Exemption for Religious Groups

Following Wednesday’s Supreme Court decision allowing religious entities to opt out of covering abortion-causing drugs and contraceptives in violation of their beliefs, Democratic presidential nominee and former vice president Joe Biden pledged to overturn the contraceptive mandate exemption if elected president.

“As disappointing as the Supreme Court’s ruling is, there is a clear path to fixing it: electing a new President who will end Donald Trump’s ceaseless attempts to gut every aspect of the Affordable Care Act,” Biden said in a statement. “If I am elected, I will restore the Obama-Biden policy that existed before the Hobby Lobby ruling: providing an exemption for houses of worship and an accommodation for nonprofit organizations with religious missions.”

“This accommodation will allow women at these organizations to access contraceptive coverage, not through their employer-provided plan, but instead through their insurance company or a third-party administrator,” he added.

However, the Little Sisters of the Poor, a Catholic religious order at the center of the case, has repeatedly stated that authorizing a “third-party administrator” to provide birth control to their employees is still a violation of their beliefs and is not an acceptable compromise. The Obama-era accommodation Biden referenced allowed religious organizations to opt out of paying for birth control, yet the policy still required the organizations to indirectly facilitate a third-party way of providing the drugs to female employees.

Much like Hobby Lobby’s win at the Supreme Court in 2014, which held that the Obama administration’s contraceptive and abortifacient mandate as applied to “closely held” corporations, such as the family-owned craft store, violated the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, Wednesday’s ruling is not likely to end all legal battles for the Little Sisters of the Poor.

“We now send these cases back to the lower courts, where the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey are all but certain to pursue their argument that the current rule is flawed on yet another ground, namely, that it is arbitrary and capricious and thus violates the [Administrative Procedure Act],” wrote Justice Samuel Alito in a concurring opinion.

Alito added: “This will prolong the legal battle in which the Little Sisters have now been engaged for seven years—even though during all this time no employee of the Little Sisters has come forward with an objection to the Little Sisters’ conduct.”

If Biden does take office, his threats could become reality. Since the executive action taken by the Trump administration to create the contraceptive mandate exemption was within its authority, a new president who is unsupportive of the exemption could reverse it.

Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, warned, “Even in the courts, religious liberty hangs in the balance. For those who say elections don’t matter in such cases, they need to think again.”

Facts Don’t Matter To The Iranian Regime’s Cheerleaders In The Mainstream Media

If you have been listening to the mainstream media these past few months, you may believe that the United States has lost the war in Iran and that Iran's regime has never been stronger or more emboldened. As a great man once said, “facts are a stubborn thing.” The fact is, ever since the U.S. launched Operation Epic Fury some six months ago, Iran's regime has seen its military and nuclear program completely decimated, and most of its top leaders killed. That was just for starters.

Rescued US Airman Describes His Reliance On Prayer Hiding In The Mountains Of Iran: ‘Faith Is The Backstop Of All My Actions’

“Lord, your will be done,” he said. “But if I’m getting through this, I need help.” Bravo hit the ground at a speed of between 70 and 100 miles per hour. The impact broke his back, arm and shoulder and caused a sprained ankle and injuries to his head and face. It had been previously reported that despite those injuries, the airman had managed to evade being captured and somehow climbed 7,000 feet in the Zagros Mountains of western Iran and found a concealed crevice where he could hide.

Boldly Reaching The ‘Hopeless Generation’: Charlie Kirk’s Legacy—One Year After His Death

Two months after Charlie was murdered, we went to the very campus where it happened—Utah Valley University—and held a Harvest Crusade. We saw many people—college students—give their lives to Jesus Christ. I believe this is a watershed moment—a turning point, especially for the younger generation. Young people, this is your moment. It’s time to stop trying to fit in and be cool. Instead, be bold and courageous. In fact, that may be the coolest thing you can do. Charlie was bold about his faith to the very end, and so should we be.
