The fiscal cliff isn’t the only abyss that the Obama Administration and Congress have created for individuals and employers. The Obamacare mandate that forces employers to provide and pay for coverage of abortion-inducing drugs, contraception, and sterilization has created a cavernous void for religious liberty that will threaten the existence of many businesses in the new year.

 

On January 1, religious business owners whose employee health plans renew at the beginning of the year will face the impossible decision to either violate their deeply held beliefs by complying with the mandate or jump over Obamacare’s conscience cliff and face ruinous fines.

Court action in 42 other cases will likewise continue to try to stop enforcement of the mandate against the more than 110 plaintiffs suing the federal government. The ultimate solution, however, is to repeal Obamacare in its entirety, walking religious liberty back from the steep edge of the Administration’s disregard for faith.
