Under the new rule, a closely held for-profit company that objects to covering contraception in its health plan can write a letter to the Department of Health and Human Services stating its objection. HHS will then notify a third-party insurer of the company's objection, and the insurer will provide birth control coverage to the company's female employees at no additional cost to the company.
“Women across the country should have access to preventive services, including contraception,” HHS Secretary Sylvia Burwell said in a statement. “At the same time, we recognize the deeply held views on these issues, and we are committed to securing women’s access to important preventive services at no additional cost under the Affordable Care Act, while respecting religious beliefs.”

Who funds the cost of the work around?
The tax paying Hobby Lobby, 12:18.
Hey! Look over there!
Who funds it? Who do you think...you and I and all other tax paying citizens of this country that's who pays for it,how does that make your pocket book feel? Personally I am sick and tired of this usurper and liar!
You fund it.
Better than having all these kids on the public tit. Birth control makes the best fiscal sense.
Absolutely. Although Hobby Lobby is one of the best "generic jobs", paying over $12/hr to start, it's still not enough to afford children without replying on the taxpayers to subsidize their subsistence.
The lower the pay, the more birth control should be advocated, regardless of "other people's" feeling on reproductive rights. Birth control saves many times its cost, in taxpayer funds.
