Doesn’t legislation have begin in the House?

[ConservingFreedom]

“Our bill simply says that your boss cannot get between you and your own healthcare,”

How do you "get between" a person and what you provide for that person?

[Steamburg]

Wack job misstatement of the decision does not a political campaign make. Nice try Harry, but even the news media can’t keep this one going.
Even if their claims were true and not bare lies; the rate at which Obummer is screwing up the lives of Americans will keep this from catching so much as a breeze in the press.

[cripplecreek]

Dead on arrival legislation that is intended to do nothing more than inspire the stupid to keep voting democrat.

[CedarDave]

Typical crap from the pro-abortion Democrats. Of the twenty types of contraception available for women under Obamacare, Hobby Lobby only objected to paying for four which caused after-contraception abortion.

[Delta Dawn]

said over 60,000 women in Alaska who use birth control would be impacted by the decision in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores.

Now there is a, 'donor', list I would like to get my hands on...

[factoryrat]

It should read: “the obama-democrat supreme court neutering” bill. The democrats refuse to follow the rule of law, therefore, all democrat politicians and followers should be rounded up and tried for insurrection, and either imprisoned, or banished from the United States for good. I considered summary execution, but they shouldn’t be allowed to be let off that easily.

[GOPJ]

If democrats can do this, why don’t they join hands with us and close the damn border?

And send illegals home...

And do it NOW.

[ExTxMarine]

Senate Democrats introduced legislation on Wednesday to effectively reverse the Supreme Court’s decision last week exempting employers from having to provide insurance coverage for contraception.

When you start with a complete and utter LIE the rest is immaterial!

The Supreme Court SPECIFICALLY stated that this ruling could NOT be used to disallow blood transfusions and overall medical care! So, this whole argument is simply a made-up ruse to confuse the already confused low-info voters - PERIOD!

More importantly, Democrats (and ONLY Democrats) have FORCED companies to provide healthcare to their employees, and they are attempting to tell them exactly what kind of care must be provided, but then they turn around and want to say that employers shouldn't be allowed to make decisions about your healthcare?!? How exactly does that work? The Obamacare debacle actually allows employers to completely DROP healthcare (at which point they will have made a decision about your access to healthcare) and again, that is IN THE LAW that Harry championed and voted for!

So, Democrats specifically allow for employers to make decisions about EVERYTHING and everyone's healthcare, so why not those specific abortion causing drugs which the company would have a personal aversion to?

[yoe]

Obamacare is chocked full of entitlements and has in effect made Sex an entitlement. If American women are too dumb or too lazy to protect and provide for themselves birth control, available free at women's clinics and for far less than the tattoos some females afford themselves but expect the government, read taxpayer, to provide them with the necessary accouterments for safe sex, then they have demeaned and cheapened themselves forever.

[CSM]

“Sen. Mark Begich (D-Alaska), a cosponsor who is in the midst of a tough re-election contest, said over 60,000 women in Alaska who use birth control would be impacted by the decision in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores.”

I did a quick store locator search on Hobby Lobby’s site and there is no store anywhere in the entire state of Alaska.

Lying liars lie....

[cuban leaf]

Kinda funny. The SCOTUS decided that the CONCEPT is unconstitutional. You can’t just make a new law to get around that decision unless it is missing the unconstitutional part.

It will also be stillborn in the house.

[Steve_Seattle]

“What if the boss doesn’t believe in any medical care?"

For 99% of our history, the "boss" DIDN'T have to provide any medical care. That's why it was called a "benefit."

[V_TWIN]

Remeber when obamacare got past the SCOTUS? It was all “hey it’s law so deal with it”............................ Not now though huh?

[IronJack]

So Democrats make a law (obamacare) that requires employers to fund abortafacients over their religious objections. The law is ruled unconstitutional because it violates the Free Exercise clause of the First Amendment. Then the Democrats propose a law requiring employers to find abortifacients over the employers’ religious objections.

What’s the definition of insanity again?

[zencycler]

Can someone else please remind our friends on the left what it means to “reverse” or “overturn” a decision of the Supreme Court!

You can not do this with a bill, law, or even an amendment. Only a future SCOTUS ruling can do that. When the two other branches make administrative or legislative changes to get their desired result, then that does not constitute a “reversal” of the decision, but rather a required accommodation in deference to the interpretation of existing law provided by the ruling.

In fact, administrative actions (such as those already provided for religious NOT-for-profit corporations), were explicitly suggested by some writing for the majority. And naturally, the act of changing a law upon which a ruling is based is an obvious remedy, and therefore does not need to be mentioned in an opinion.

It truly dismays me that quotes by left-leaning politicians and media that refer to “overturning” or “reversing” this decision have gone unchallenged.

Certainly, from their point of view, I can understand why the left and their media allies don’t want to frame this with a more accurate headline like:

“Having Failed at an Illegal Mandate, Democrats Defer to Hobby Lobby Ruling to Find a Legal Alternative”

However, I am surprised that, so far, I seem to be the only one challenging them for referring to their efforts as somehow seeking to “reverse” the SCOTUS decision.
