The United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit issued a decision on Firday that goes quite a ways towards ending the free birth control and abortifacient mandate of the federal government under Obamacare. In Korte v. Sebelius, the court issued a preliminary injunction against enforcement of the Obamacare rule requiring employers to provide health insurance that covers birth control and abortion pills. The court found that the law violates the religious freedom of thos who are opposed to such measures. This is the second circuit court to issue such an injunction but the first to provide an opinion explaining its reasoning. One circuit has already gone the other way as well. My guess is that we will soon see Obamacare back in front of the Supreme Court on this point.
