Court Orders End of Abortion-Pill Mandate for Indiana, CA Christian Colleges


(Worthy News) – A federal district court is blocking the federal government from enforcing the Obama abortion-pill mandate against Christian colleges in Indiana and California.

“After reconsideration of their position, defendants with the federal government now agree that enforcement of the rules regarding the contraceptive mandate against employers with sincerely held religious objections would violate the RFRA…,” the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, South Bend Division, wrote in its order in Grace Schools v. Azar. It added that “the public interest in the vindication of religious freedom favors the entry of an injunction and declaratory judgment.”

The order also declares that the mandate violates the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act. Signed by President Bill Clinton, the 1993 act ensures that interests in religious freedom are protected. [ Source: CBN News (Read More…) ]
