Yes and we thought this case was settled - unanimously - at the Supreme Court level. But no. More lawsuits, more lower Court ruling against them... Shameful, really shameful.
Federal Court Forces Little Sisters of the Poor to Fund Abortions Under Obamacare Mandate
Over the past three years the Supreme Court has twice protected the Catholic nuns, but pro-abortion state officials have filed new lawsuits trying to force the Catholic order to pay for abortions in their health care plan. Today, a 3-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit issued a decision.
The panel’s ruling invalidated the new pro-life rules the Trump administration put in place to protect the Catholic nuns and others from being forced to fund abortions.
In May 2016, the Supreme Court unanimously overturned lower court rulings against the Little Sisters and granted them an exemption from the Obama HHS mandate, which required the nuns to fund abortion pills in their health care plans or pay millions of dollars in fines. In 2018, the Trump administration announced a new rule protecting religious non-profits, including the Little Sisters, but several states, including Pennsylvania and California, immediately sued the federal government to take that protection away, forcing the Little Sisters back to court.

More evidence beyond a shadow of a doubt of the struggle in this country between good and evil. These activist judges and politicians must be taken out of power while we are still free enough to do it.
