Hobby Lobby's request to block health law denied

OKLAHOMA CITY - A federal appeals court has denied Oklahoma City-based Hobby Lobby's request to block a portion of the federal health care law that requires the company provide insurance coverage for emergency contraception pills.

The U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday denied the arts-and-crafts company's request for an injunction while it appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court.
