Their story tonight on abc7 news at 11 00. The Supreme Court will hear another challenge to president obamas Health Care Law. Time it has to do with Birth Control coverage for employees. One Company Makes wood cabinets, the other is an arts and crafts chain, but owners are christian families who want to assert their religious beliefs. The Health Care Law says no church will be forced to provide contraception for its employees. But its Parent Organization the daughters of charity has to provide coverage to employees of nonreligious organizations it runs like Seton Medical Center in san mateo county. Seton will not pay for contraceptives but the Insurance Company will pay for them. But now, the Supreme Court will consider cases of two for Profit Companies that want to get out of that requirement. In both cases, the companies are not religious but the founders and families who own them are. And believe some forms violate their religious beliefs so the question is can a corporation assert its religious beliefs under 1993 religious freedom restoration act . In the catholic tradition, any type of contraceptive is a demonstration of a part of the couple that there is not an openness to must life. That is difficulty within our moral institution.
