Supreme Court to hear Trump appeal in Obamacare contraception fight

Catholic Law Professor Mark Rienzi was recently quoted in The New York Times in reference to a Supreme Court hearing of an appeal made by the Trump Administration in the Obamacare contraception fight.

Mark Rienzi, a lawyer at the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which represents the Little Sisters, said he was hopeful the Supreme Court would finally resolve the long-running litigation over religious nonprofit groups, which already reached the Supreme Court once in 2016.

"There are plenty of ways to provide people with contraceptives without forcing Catholic nuns to participate," Rienzi said.
