Healthcare Mandate for Christian College Struck Down

Mark 13:13 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”

Another Christian college has been exempted from the nation’s healthcare laws.

Louisiana College in Pineville filed suit in 2012 over the healthcare mandate’s requirements regarding abortion-inducing drugs.  The Alliance Defending Freedom brought the suit on the school’s behalf.

“This is bigger than a preliminary injunction — they already had won that,” said Focus on the Family Judicial Analyst Bruce Hausknecht. “This is a decision ‘on the merits’ of the college’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act claim, which they won at the district court level. But this is big because it’s apparently the first such decision in either the nonprofit or for-profit cases that actually decides the substantive issue — not just the temporary reprieve.”

The Department of Justice tried to get the case initially dismissed but it’s now likely in light of the recent Supreme Court decision the case would not be appealed by federal prosecutors.

So far, 56 injunctions against the law have been put in place by various federal judges.
