Thread: 40 Lawsuits Against Obama Administration And Counting

40 Lawsuits Against Obama Administration And Counting



The number of lawsuits against the Obama administration over a rule forcing employers to provide insurance covering contraceptives and possible abortifacient drugs reached 40 this week, when a medical supply company in Minnesota filed a complaint on Nov. 5.


Stuart Lind, who owns Annex Medical, Inc., is a Catholic dedicated to “conducting business in a way that is pleasing to God and is faithful to Biblical principles and values,” according to court documents. He says the mandate is forcing him to violate his religious beliefs.


“This case follows the successful challenges of the (Health and Human Services) mandate by for-profit businesses in other states,” said Erick Kaardal of the Minneapolis-based law firm Mohrman & Kaardal, P.A., one of the attorneys representing Lind. “We are the first to file in Minnesota. We hope to have the Constitution applied to protect business owners’ religious liberties elsewhere.”



The Obama administration gave secular businesses until this past August to comply with the mandate. Faith-based organizations, including Catholic hospitals, universities and ministries, have a so-called “safe harbor” extension that gives them until August 2013 to find a way to comply.

Boehner: Obamacare is ‘Law of the Land’





House Speaker John Boehner said on Thursday that Obamacare was “the law of the land” – apparently conceding that GOP efforts to repeal President Barack Obama’s healthcare law have ended.

Boehner, the nation’s top elected Republican, hinted in an interview with ABC News that Congress would not undertake efforts to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

“The election changes that,” Boehner responded to a question about whether Congress would undertake repeal efforts next year. “It’s pretty clear that the president was re-elected. Obamacare is the law of the land.

“I think there are parts of the healthcare law that are going to be very difficult to implement,” he added. “And very expensive. And as the time when we’re trying to find a way to create a path toward a balanced budget, everything has to be on the table.”

When asked whether GOP legislators would spend time working to repeal Obamacare, Boehner reiterated: “There certainly may be parts of it that we believe need to be changed. We may do that. No decisions at this point.”
But Kevin Smith, a Boehner spokesman, sought to clarify the speaker’s remarks later on Thursday.
