Little Sisters of the Poor Get Good News

by Daveda Gruber:

On Wednesday Little Sisters of the Poor and the Trump administration got good news from the ruling of the Supreme Court.

The Catholic group has been at the center of the national debate when the Trump administration expanded exemptions to the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) requirement for employers to provide insurance coverage that includes contraception.

The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration acted within its authority with a 7 to 2 vote.

The Little Sisters of the Poor cares for the elderly.

Two related disputes that were against Pennsylvania when they sued over the legality of a rule from the Trump administration. The rule allowed religious associated groups and some profit earning companies to be able to opt-out of providing contraception coverage to their employees.

The majority opinion was written by Justice Clarance Thomas. He ruled that the Trump administration’s challenged rulemaking was aboveboard, but acknowledged the work of the Little Sisters of the Poor.

Thomas wrote, “For over 150 years, the Little Sisters have engaged in faithful service and sacrifice, motivated by a religious calling to surrender all for the sake of their brother. But for the past seven years, they—like many other religious objectors who have participated in the litigation and rulemakings leading up to today’s decision— have had to fight for the ability to continue in their noble work without violating their sincerely held religious beliefs.”

The written opinion goes on to say, “We hold today that the Departments had the statutory authority to craft that exemption, as well as the contemporaneously issued moral exemption. We further hold that the rules promulgating these exemptions are free from procedural defects.”

Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor were the two justices who dissented.

A nationwide injunction had put exemptions on hold while lower court rulings had gone against the administration. The Supreme Court’s ruling on Wednesday is a huge win for religious conservatives who have been battling the ACA’s contraceptive mandate for years.

Obamacare will bring the Supreme Court to rule on red-leaning states to invalidate the entire Affordable Care Act.

Democrats are opposed to invalidating the entire Affordable Care Act.

It will be up to the Supreme Court to make that decision but the Little Sisters are now exempt.

It boggles my mind why anyone would try to bring costs up implementing the supply of birth control by a Catholic group with the name “Little Sisters of the Poor.”

To me, the case was lost from the get go. But then, as I always say, “You can’t fix stupid.”

Affordable for who?

As insurance companies continue to drop the fraud placed upon the American Taxpayer known as the “Unaffordable Care Act” there are still voices clamoring for more “government” control.

It would be comical if not so disconcerting to listen to someone rant about their “right” to medical “care” while proclaiming it should cost them nothing.

It’s almost as bad as being lead by politicians who boldly state “we have to pass it to find out what is in it.”

Or…

“Americans are too stupid so we have to lie to them to get this through”.

“The “Affordable Care Act will cover the 40 million uninsured.”

Never covered more than 12 million and even that is debatable as these numbers came from the government.

We were promised the ACA would not be available to humans here illegally.

Another lie as California has been offering it along with drivers licenses.

Of course there was the Obama claim that “you can keep your plan, doctor, etc., and everyone would save money.”

With all of this information available to everyone there are still millions voting for Clinton and Sanders who either want to keep a system that was built on lies or expand it to completely get rid of choice and give everyone “universal coverage”.

This from a man kicked out of a commune because he wouldn’t do his “fair share” of the daily work required to feed everyone.

Seriously though what do you expect?

The guy responsible for this monstrous lie was part of the Choom Gang and bragged about doing cocaine.

He also thinks Islam is woven into the fabric of our country and Michael Brown was a hero.

The woman who would like to keep this monstrous lie apparently does not understand what “Top Secret” means or that her “husband” is probably still cheating on her.

She also stared into the face of the parents of the four killed in Benghazi and told them it was about a video when she knew it wasn’t.

Finally we are left with a Democratic Socialist who thinks he can read a woman’s mind and when he does somehow decides women fantasize about being raped simultaneously by three different men while having sex with their partner.

With these kinds of “friends” who needs enemies?

The facts are in.

Washington DC is the main hub for corruption in the world.

Garbage in garbage out.

So put on your hard hat and gloves America…it’s time to take out the trash.
