The Obama administration plans to announce today that it will require all employers to comply with a new mandate in the health law providing free contraception in any health insurance they provide to women without a co-pay. Religious employers that don’t currently offer insurance that covers contraception due to moral objections must also comply with the law but have a one-year delay before they must implement the mandate, according to the
Religious institutions that do provide contraception, such as Catholic universities and hospitals, must start offering free coverage when the new rule takes effect,

There are companies and Catholic colleges that would completely drop their health plan if this succeeds.

Obama is using strategic threat assessment. That's another word for "Sit down, shut up, and do as you're told, subject."
