GOP congressman: Hobby Lobby case is proof liberals want ‘Stone Age tribalism’

The Hobby Lobby case is proof that liberals adhere a caveman ideology, according to Rep. Steve Stockman (R-TX).

Following the Supreme Court’s ruling last week, the Texas congressman released a statement claiming that liberals who wanted businesses to provide contraception coverage for their employees were trying to drag the nation back to the Stone Age.

“I applaud the Supreme Court for upholding the fundamental freedoms our Founding Fathers sought to protect and secure in our nation’s founding documents,” Stockman said in a statement.

In their ruling, the Supreme Court held that the government could not require closely held corporations with religious owners to provide health insurance plans that included birth control.
