That’s a huge shift in the Hispanic vote!
It’s taken them longer than I expected tbh. I thought the Roe v Wade thing would start a mass culling of rights by the Christian Nationalist lobby in the States pretty quickly.

You’d think regardless, any decent employer would still include things like this in the plans they offer to their employees. Then again, Texas.
There will be many (especially smaller companies) that wouldn't have been able to afford to fight it that will now change their insurance plan.
Saw it after the Hobby Lobby birth control ruling as well.
The company in the suit is a front for Dr. Steven Hotze, who is a grifting uber Christian loon who will not rest until the country is a theocratic state.

I can't see that holding up on appeal. The government has the right to regulate insurers and set basic coverage standards under the interstate commerce clause. It also has the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to fall back on.
If it could not do this, the ACA would have been tossed. I think Kavanaugh is the fifth vote here to 0p

Yeah, that was interestimg. Fifth vote to reverse. I locked the phone and put it back in my pocket, since I wasn't done. Evidently the screen didn't lock, changes were made without my consent, and then the phone repeatedly posted just to give me a double bird rather than a single one.
I cleaned it up
