Rand Paul on what Obama should tell Pope Francis (Politico)

With President Barack Obama set to meet Pope Francis this week, Sen. Rand Paul said Tuesday the president has some explaining to do.

“He ought to explain to the Pope why he is telling businesses in America they can’t remain true to their faith and stay in business,” the Kentucky Republican said on Fox News’s “Fox and Friends.”

Paul brought up the lawsuit being heard by the Supreme Court on Tuesday that challenges the part of the Affordable Care Act that mandates coverage for birth control. The suit is being brought by businesses that say the rule violates their religious freedom.
