Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson Statement on U.S. Supreme Court Ruling on Contraceptives Mandate for Corporations under Affordable Care Act

MIAMI – Congresswoman Frederica S. Wilson (FL-24) issued this statement today following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision that allows for-profit corporations with religious objections to opt out of covering contraception under the Affordable Care Act:

“This decision is yet another attack on Americans’ ability to make their own health decisions and strips an element of women’s comprehensive healthcare.

“Health care decisions are deeply personal. Employers should not have the right to limit the health choices of their employees, male or female.”
