The Little Black Dress
In 2014, the United States Supreme Court ruled that requiring family-owned corporations to pay for insurance coverage for contraception under the Affordable Care Act violated a federal law protecting religious freedom. The suit was brought to the Court by the Green family, owners of the Hobby Lobby craft stores. The result being that they were not required to offer their employees some forms of birth control if they felt this violated their religious freedom. The ruling felt like one more attack on a woman’s access to reproductive choice.
