WASHINGTON – Both Republicans and Democrats support a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision to send back to appeals courts cases challenging Obamacare mandates that require coverage of contraception based on religious grounds, asking the panels to try to find compromise solutions to the disputes.
At the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast Tuesday, U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan praised Monday's unanimous decision by the high court. The ruling absolved employers like the Little Sisters of the Poor, a Catholic charity group, from facing fines for failing to meet the mandates of the Affordable Care Act while the cases are pending.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, released Wednesday a list of 11 potential Supreme Court justices he plans to vet to fill the seat of late Justice Antonin Scalia if he's elected to the White House.
The list of conservative federal and state judges includes Steven Colloton of Iowa, Allison Eid of Colorado and Raymond Gruender of Missouri.
