Supreme Court Orders Review of New York Abortion Mandate

WFB:

The Supreme Court on Monday ordered a lower court to review the legality of a New York mandate that requires religious organizations to cover abortion in their insurance plans.

A coalition of religious groups petitioned the Court to strike down the mandate, which denies religious exemptions to groups that employ individuals outside their faith. The justices ordered the Supreme Court of New York to reconsider its 2020 ruling to uphold the law in light of the Supreme Court’s unanimous decision in Fulton v. Philadelphia. In that case, the Court said the city violated the First Amendment by terminating its contract with a Catholic adoption agency that would not work with same-sex couples.

Monday’s decision is the justices’ latest move to uphold the First Amendment rights of religious groups. The Court in April struck down restrictions on religious services imposed by then-New York governor Andrew Cuomo (D.). Court watchers say lower courts could take note of this trend and follow the justices in their own rulings. more

  1. You ever notice that when Democrats win in the Supreme Court it’s always VERY EMPATHETICALL6 FINAL, as in “This is now completely settled law, so if anyone even QUESTIONS it they are to be attacked in the middle of the night, their dog shot, their children put in tbe street in their pajamas and be incarcerated without trial for an indefinite time, but if a CONSERVATIVE “wins” in the Supreme Court it just gets remanded to the previous court that violated the Constitution in the FIRST place and will do so again, just setting the stage for another fuckton of money to be spent on lawyers until it comes back to the SC again, who will probably refuse to even hear it the second time and let the original judgement stand, so nothing was gained but LOTS of money lost?

    This isn’t a “win”.

    Its just lawfare.

    And we’re losing.
