Supreme Court orders NY court to reconsider ruling forcing Catholic diocese to cover abortions
Fox News
The Supreme Court on Monday ordered New York's top court to reconsider its ruling against a coalition of charities that challenged the state's mandate that employers cover abortions in their employee health insurance plans.
The high court ruled in that case, Fulton v. Philadelphia, that the city's refusal to contract with the charity due to the agency's same-sex couple policy violated the free exercise clause of the First Amendment.
In the New York case, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany argues that the state’s abortion insurance mandate for employers, approved in 2017, violates its First Amendment rights.
