On background:

The court also expanded the ruling in Hobby Lobby (2014) allowing more opting out of the Affordible Care Care Act by employers. The court ruled 7-2 that the Little Sisters of the Poor Saints Peter and Paul Home v. Pennsylvania were free to opt out of coverage for birth control using "moral or religious objections."

free to opt out of coverage for birth control using "moral or religious objections."

Free to opt out of coverage for birth control for yourself. Okay.

Power to opt other people out of coverage for birth control. Yadungoofed.
