Hobby Lobby Redux

The regulations set forth two possible approaches to defining a "qualifying closely held for-profit entity" In Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc. , 134 S. Ct. 2751 the Supreme Court held that the requirement to provide contraceptive coverage to employees pursuant to Obamacare by employers with religious objections could not be applied to "closely held for-profit corporations" under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 because the government could accomplish its goal of providing such coverage by offering such employers the same accommodation offered to religious nonprofit organizations with religious objections to such coverage.
