re: #55 Slumbering Behemoth

Am I missing something here? I thought that the contraceptive coverage rule was for those receiving federal funds. In other words, you could still offer insurance that doesn’t cover contraception as long as you’re not receiving federal money.

Do I have that wrong?

Nope. My basic understanding (without links, so correct as needed) is that a religious employer who disagrees with the coverage will not have to offer it. But the insurance company, direct to the policy holder will. No Churchy involved. The bishops were not happy with that.

Then, the GOP is introducing a bill that ANY employer can deny ANY coverage it disagrees with. Stupidity trying to go with the hate flow.

Correct and elaborate peeps.
