Surprising Allies In The Fight For Birth Control

*Their discussion about the Bible is misinformed, but their report of current events is valuable.

"As the Supreme Court prepares to hear two religious challenges to Obamacare's birth control provision, it may appear that battle lines are drawn in the sand between faith communities and secular interests. But that's actually somewhat of a false dichotomy. Not all religious groups are opposed to contraceptive coverage — and some are actually speaking up in favor of it, urging the nation's highest court to rule in favor of the health law.

A group of 45 religious leaders have signed onto a letter in support of birth control coverage, pointing out that the two for-profit companies challenging Obamacare don't speak for all people of faith. Although Hobby Lobby and Conestoga Wood are arguing that extending birth control coverage to workers is a violation of their religious liberty, the letter's signatories point out that isn't how that concept has traditionally been defined."* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.
