Supreme Court Likely To Rule on Obamacare Contraception Mandate
Two federal appeals courts have issued opposite rulings
ObamaCare's birth control mandate is putting the president's signature legislative issue on a fast track back to the Supreme Court.
Lawyers on both sides of the issue say the high court will almost certainly have to rule on the controversial policy, possibly as early as its next term.
Two federal appeals courts have come down with opposite rulings on an important question related to the policy: whether for-profit businesses and their owners have the right to challenge in court the requirement that businesses provide contraception as part of their insurance coverage.
