A federal judge in Pittsburgh has granted a preliminary injunction to a Christian college that objects to certain provisions of Obamacare, which could require it to include female contraceptives, like Plan B, in the health care coverage it makes available to students.
U.S. District Judge Joy Flowers Conti of the Western District of Pennsylvania granted the injunction just over a month before the start of the health care plan year August 1. If the court didn't grant the injunction by today, June 20 — the deadline for its health insurance carrier — Geneva College wouldn't have contracted for a student health-insurance plan, Conti said. She issued her opinion two days ahead of that date.
