Biden Admin Quietly Scraps Proposal That Would Force More Employers To Cover Employees’ Birth Control | The Daily Caller
December 24, 2024
The Biden administration quietly withdrew a proposal to reduce the ability of employers to opt-out of covering birth control for employees on Monday.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) published notice in the Federal Register on Monday that the agency is pulling back its proposed regulations to bar employers from being excused from the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) contraceptive mandate on the grounds of “non-religious moral objections.” The agency said that it chose to withdraw the proposed regulations to “focus their time and resources on matters other than finalizing these rules” as the Biden administration draws to a close.
