The Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled that the Little Sisters of the Poor are exempt from an Obama-era mandate to provide contraception in their health care plans.
The case, Little Sisters of the Poor v. Pennsylvania, marked the Catholic religious order’s second time before the Supreme Court, after nearly 10 years of legal dispute. It arose when the New Jersey and Pennsylvania state governments sued the Trump administration for exempting the Little Sisters from the contraception mandate.
According to some of the writings, there is an argument to be made that someone could still argue that Trump violated the Administrative Procedure Act (that whole arbitrary capricious deal) - but there still seems to be at least five votes for the Trump administration on that side as well.
That being said, look for angry screaming mad religious hating intolerant liberals to go back to court for the millionth time to try to sue their way to another policy win that they couldn't garner otherwise.

A 7-2 vote means SCOTUS doesn't want to see little sisters back into their court.
When the 1st amendment said Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.
They mean exactly what they said. No law or regulation ever.
Winning
Thanks to President Trump.

In recent weeks President Trump has railed against tearing down statues across the country — and has been particularly dogged in his defense of Confederate monuments. But his argument that they are benign symbols of America’s past is misleading. An overwhelming majority of Confederate memorials weren’t erected in the years directly following the Civil War. Instead, most were put up decades later. Nor were they built just to commemorate fallen generals and soldiers; they were installed as symbols of white supremacy during periods of U.S. history when Black Americans’ civil rights were aggressively under attack. In total, at least 830 such monuments were constructed across the U.S, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, which maintains a comprehensive database of Confederate monuments and symbols.
The biggest spike in Confederate memorials came during the early 1900s, soon after Southern states enacted a number of sweeping laws to disenfranchise Black Americans and segregate society. During this period, more than 400 monuments were built as part of an organized strategy to reshape Civil War history. And this effort was largely spearheaded by the United Daughters of the Confederacy, who sponsored hundreds of statues, predominantly in the South in the early 20th century — and as recently as 2011.
I stand corrected. The employer can fire an employee for getting pregnant.
Roger , again shows how little he knows about the US Constitution.
Roger, this is a USSC thread .
You're spamming the wrong thread.

I stand corrected. Umless the decision today overturns the law.
between 70,500 and 126,400 women would immediately lose access to no-cost contraceptive services.”

Depending upon the type of insurance coverage, the cost of birth control pills is not very expensive or maybe zero dollars.
And it isn’t added into the price of the insurance
It’s free
Idiot
From a friend of mine who is a lawyer, and his father was a Senator from South Dakota. Not George McGovern.
The US Supreme Court is gradually creating a superclass of citizens who are not subject to our laws or constitutional guarantees of equal protection and fairness. We are headed toward legally-guaranteed supremacy by religious fundamentalists over our secular society.

Two weeks after Trump’s rally, Oklahoma sets record for Covid-19 cases. Next stop is New Hampshire.
