White House ‘Confident’ On Birth Control Mandate

Even though the Supreme Court blocked the requirement for one Catholic group, the White House is standing by having the Affordable Care Act cover birth control.

“We defer to the Department of Justice on litigation matters, but remain confident that our final rules strike the balance of providing women with free contraceptive coverage while preventing non-profit religious employers with religious objections to contraceptive coverage from having to contract, arrange, pay, or refer for such coverage,” a White House official told Politico on Wednesday.
