RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - A new poll Rasmussen finds that just four out of 10 likely U.S. voters believes the federal government should require that every American buy health insurance of face a penalty -- the individual mandate provision of the federal Affordable Care Act.
More than half of likely voters -- 51 percent -- remain opposed to the program commonly known as 'Obamacare.'
The survey was conducted on July 6.
The results come in the wake of a major legal ruling that went against the Obamacare mandate for businesses. Last week the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the the owners of the retail craft store chain Hobby Lobby do not have to provide insurance coverage to their employees for abortion-inducing drugs.
The owners -- the Green family -- are devout Christians who oppose abortion. They argued that Obamacare violates their religious liberty.
The Greens were represented by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty.
