Getting Our Irish Up!
In
recent federal court litigation, private business owner, Frank R. O’Brien, has
sued the Administration claiming the HHS mandate violates his religious liberty
in conducting the business of his company:
Excerpt below from
the federal court complaint, at paragraph 5, O’Brien v. U.S. DHHS:
5. O’Brien
contends that by requiring him to choose between conducting his business in a
manner consistent with his religion, or paying ruinous fines and penalties, the
Mandate violates his
rights under the First Amendment, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, and
violates the Administrative
Procedure Act.
Just in time for St. Paddy's Day!
