Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) released the following statement after the Supreme Court today announced its ruling in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby:

"The First Amendment affords Americans the freedom of religion. Obamacare should not infringe on this right, and employers should not be fined for practicing their constitutionally-protected faiths. I applaud today's Supreme Court decision, which ensures they won't be. It is a victory for religious liberty and business alike."
