Petition of the day
The petition of the day is:
Issue: Whether the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA), 42 U.S.C. § 2000bb et seq., which provides that the government “shall not substantially burden a person’s exercise of religion” unless that burden is the least restrictive means to further a compelling governmental interest, allows a for-profit corporation to deny its employees the health coverage of contraceptives to which the employees are otherwise entitled by federal law, based on the religious objections of the corporation’s owners.
