Obama Administration Ordered To Revise Contraceptive Mandate

2 Samuel 22:4 NCV I will call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I will be saved from my enemies.

The Obama administration is working on a plan that will allow religious non-profit organizations that object to paying for abortion causing drugs and also signing forms to allow third-party groups to cover them to completely opt-out.

A White House spokesman said they are “developing the alternative” to the original plan that “won’t involve shifting the costs to employees.”

The Obama administration was ordered by the Supreme Court to revise the rules after a 6-3 vote by the Supreme Court that Wheaton College could not be required to cover abortion-causing drugs.  The case will have trickle down impact on other cases including one involving the Little Sisters of the Poor.

The court said the rule in the healthcare law violated the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

A source told the Associated Press the new rules will come out in about a month.
