The Supreme Court has ordered a New York court to reassess a regulation that mandates health insurance plans cover abortions, particularly regarding religious organizations' exemptions. This ruling follows a previous unanimous decision where Wisconsin was found to discriminate against a Catholic charity regarding unemployment taxes. The New York regulation currently exempts religious employers serving only their faith but excludes those serving a broader community. The Catholic Diocese of Albany contests this exemption, and this marks the second referral of the case back to New York courts after previous related rulings involving the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court directed a New York court to reconsider the exemption status of certain religious organizations under a state regulation on abortion coverage.
The New York case echoes earlier rulings, questioning the fairness of exempting religious employers that primarily serve their own faith while excluding others.
