A judge on Thursday blocked the federal government from requiring the founder of Domino's Pizza to provide mandatory contraception coverage to his employees under the health care law. U.S. District Judge Lawrence Zatkoff granted a preliminary injunction against enforcement of the contraception provision of the law against Tom Monaghan and Domino's Farms Corp, a management company located near Ann Arbor, Mich. The company...is not connected with Domino's Pizza...The new federal law requires employers to offer insurance that includes contraception coverage or risk fines…In its response to the suit filed in December, the department denied the health care law had a substantial effect on Monaghan's exercise of his rights to religious freedom or freedom of speech…"The HHS [Department of Health and Human Services] mandate forces our clients to provide abortion-causing drugs to their employees when doing so is a direct violation of the teachings of the Catholic Church and our clients' sincerely held religious beliefs,"[said Monaghan’s lawyer].
