Obama: Don’t Exempt Catholic Nuns

The Department of Justice called on the Supreme Court to not exempt a group of Catholic nuns from Obamacare’s contraception mandate on Friday. Tuesday, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor granted the Little Sisters of the Poor Home for the Aged a temporary injunction from the requirement that the nuns offer insurance that covers contraception or face hefty fines. The Little Sisters, represented by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, argue that compliance with the requirement would violate their religious beliefs/The Daily Caller. More here.

Question: Should the Little Sisters of the Poor Home for the Aged be exempt from Obamacare's contraception mandate?
