Supreme court justice temporarily blocks birth control mandate in Obamacare

WASHINGTON – Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor ordered a delay Tuesday in the enforcement of the birth control mandate in the Affordable Care Act.

According to a Supreme Court document, several requests for the Supreme Court to delay enforcement of the contraceptive mandate were brought forward by Catholic groups seeking the delay.  The groups said that the birth control mandate violates their religious beliefs by forcing them to support contraception.  Fines could be imposed if the law is not followed.

The ruling temporarily blocks the federal government from enforcing against applicants the contraceptive coverage requirements imposed by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, pending the receipt of a response from the federal government. The response is due Friday, January 3, 2014, by 10 a.m.

According to scotusblog.com, the Court has already agreed to hear constitutional challenges to the Affordable Care Act’s mandate on birth control and other pregnancy-related services, in the case of Sebelius v.  Hobby Lobby Stores.

Are you buffoons not reading the news?

Obamacare is not a law, it is crime.

For 5 years this anti-American President we call Obama has been spreading the wealth. Now we are in worse shape then when Obama took office. Obama has almost doubled the national debt. People are poorer today then when Obama took office. The country has more people unemployed then when Obama took office. More underemployed then when Obama took office. Don’t bother quoting the latest UN-employment numbers in the news, there phoney.

You Obamanuts have it most awfully wrong.

Sorry

1. Members of the Supreme Court are called justices, not judges.

2. She was one of the 5 justices that voted to uphold Obamacare.

3. If you graduated high school, please inform them that you need a refresher on American government, as your entire post lacks any intelligence.

The judge should have put a stop to the Obamacare period. Things were working fine before this idiot got in office.

“things were working fine”…in what fantasy world do you live in?

Working so fine our economy was in the toilet, banks were failing, housing was crashing, not to mention two wars for no reason I can figure out… If that’s fine then I don’t know what the hell bad is.

Even more news:
