Fox News<\/a> is reporting today that the Supreme Court<\/a> has ruled in favor of Hobby Lobby<\/a> in its suit against the ObamaCare<\/a> requirement that it provide contraceptives<\/a> for female employees.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The justices’ 5-4 decision is the first time that the high court has ruled that profit-seeking businesses<\/a> can hold religious views under federal law. And it means the Obama administration<\/a> must search for a different way of providing free contraception to women who are covered under objecting companies’ health insurance plans<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…The court stressed that its ruling applies only to corporations that are under the control of just a few people in which there is no essential difference between the business and its owners.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alito<\/a> also said the decision is limited to contraceptives under the health care law<\/a>. “Our decision should not be understood to hold that an insurance-coverage mandate must necessarily fall if it conflicts with an employer’s religious beliefs,” Alito said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The really good news here is that Hobby Lobby will remain in business. There was some question as to whether the company would have stayed in business had the family that owns the company\u00a0 been forced to do things that were in conflict with their religious beliefs.<\/p>\n
