Billy Long on Hobby Lobby ruling: Today is great day for religious freedom

(From Seventh District Congressman Billy Long)

U.S. Rep. Billy Long issued the following statement after the U.S. Supreme Court handed down their decision on the contraception mandate in the president's health care law:

"Today is a great day for religious freedom in our country. A health care law should not trample on the rights of Americans to freely exercise their deeply held religious beliefs. Today the court ruled the president's health care law goes too far in attempting to force Americans to check their religious beliefs at the door.
