A federal appeals court ruled Friday that a Christian-owned business can’t be compelled to cover preventive medications as is required under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), but it determined a Texas judge carried out an “abuse of discretion” in his prior ruling by blocking federal agencies from enforcing the rule universally.
[…] Christian-owned business […]
[…] Texas judge carried out an “abuse of discretion”[…]
The ACA provision in question requires private health insurers and companies to cover preventive services and drugs like HIV preventive drugs, known as PrEP, which Braidwood objected to. This provision also requires coverage of cancer screenings, vaccines, STD screenings, gestational health screenings and birth control.
So we have some Christian Nationalists and a Texas judge. Name a more iconic duo /s.
