the little sisters of the poor and their co- petitioners face a dilemma that the religious freedom restoration act does not allow. they can adhere to their religious beliefs and paid millions of dollars in penalty, or they can take steps that they believe to be religiously a morally objectionable and that the permit deems necessary for them to provide contraceptive coverage through their healthcare plans. the government concedes the sincerity of these religious beliefs but it attempts to recast them as an objection to the very acts of opting out from injecting. with all due respect, that is simply and demonstrably not true. >> could you explain to me the analogy with military objectives during the war? many of them felt that in genuine belief we were pacifists, that if they registered as pacifists, that would mean other people would have to serve in their -- there are going to jail and many of them did go to jail because of this to believe. why is going to jail less burdensome, or less important then paying a financial penalty? >> i do not think it is. but let me stick with the conscientious o

chief justice, and may it please the court, petitioner seeks a categorical carveout from the concept of an "official act" for things like meetings, phone calls, events, that, in his view, do not further or advance or attempt to influence a particular government action, but simply provide somebody with access to the government. justice roberts: well, he's not the only one. one there's an extraordinary document in this case, and that's the amicus brief filed by former white house counsel to president obama, former white house counsel to president george w. bush, former white house counsel to president clinton, former white house counsel to george h.w. bush, former white house counsel to president reagan. and they say, quoting their brief, that "if this decision is upheld, it will cripple the ability of elected officials to fulfill their role in our representative democracy." now, i think it's extraordinary that those people agree on anything.
