Hobby Lobby is so offended by the idea of contributing to its
employees' birth control expenses that it fought all the way to the
Supreme Court over the issue. But its retirement plan has over $73M
sunk into funds that include companies that make contraception.
The company made the investments in mutual funds that include Teva
Pharmaceutical Industries, Actavis, Pfizer, Forest Laboratories, Aetna
and Humana three months after it filed its lawsuit. The companies in
their portfolio make contraceptive pills, abortion drugs, IUDs, and
provide surgical abortions and emergency contraception. The funds
comprise three quarters of Hobby Lobby's overall portfolio.
