Pittsburgh Diocese Settles Suit Over Birth Control Mandate

The Pittsburgh and Erie Catholic dioceses in Pennsylvania have settled their lawsuits seeking to overturn a federal Affordable Care Act mandate that would have forced them to provide contraceptive and abortion-inducing drugs or services as part of their employee health care plans.
