I'll admit I didn't read every word carefully, but I didn't see anything either about being able to fire employees who use contraceptives. Exactly what language in the bill are you talking about?

I read an article on HP that suggests employers would be able to fire employees if they claimed to be on contraceptives for a medical condition to get it paid for by the employer's health insurance under this statute only to be found out to be lying. Very convoluted thinking. Still not a good law. This goes to far to protect a employer's "religious rights" but ignores the employee's rights when they frequently pay into the health insurance as much as or more than the employer.
