Religious Liberties Practice Group Podcast
Our expert gave our listeners background information on the Little Sisters of the Poor Home for the Aged v. Burwell case and reported on what transpired during oral argument. In the much-discussed case, the Court will decide an important challenge to the Affordable Care Act (ACA). At issue is the ACA’s contraceptive mandate, and whether it imposes a substantial burden on religious exercise or a violation of RFRA. Has the Department of Health and Human Services satisfied RFRA’s test for overriding a sincerely-held religious objection?
