Court rejects Hobby Lobby’s challenge to contraceptive mandate

OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov 20 : A federal judge yesterday denied a legal challenge to President Barack Obama’s signature health reforms, ruling that the owners of a  3 billion dollar arts and crafts chain must provide emergency contraceptives in their group health care plan. The owners of Hobby Lobby asked to be exempted from providing the ‘morning after’ and ‘week after’ pills on religious grounds, arguing this would violate their Christian belief that abortion is wrong.
