The point is that the broad mandate to require HC plans


To cover contraception should also include reasonable carve outs for religious organizations and other organizations of deep faith who are morally opposed to contraception. As a practical matter 99% of all employer sponsored plans are going to continue to provide the coverage because (1) it lowers the cost of the plans, and (2) not offering BC coverage might limit their ability to attract talent.

I don’t think it’s acceptable to force employers with deeply held religious beliefs to “pay for”, “subsidize” or whatever term you want to call it, birth control for their employees, especially since there are plenty of cheap alternatives in the marketplace for those employees to secure their own birth control...just not seeing the hardship this places on those employees.

Unfortunately, this has become a zero sum issue for secular progressives...it’s more about control, and less about concern for the small number of employees that would supposedly be impacted by this exemption...
