Hobby Lobby Stores Inc. co-founders David and Barbara Green who are asking a federal appeals court in Denver on Thursday, May 23, 2013, for an exemption from part of the federal health care law that requires it to offer employees health coverage that includes access to the morning-after pill. The Oklahoma City-based arts-and-crafts chain argues that businesses, and not just religious groups, should be allowed to seek exemptions from that part of the health law if it violates their religious beliefs.
