The Obama administration has prohibited the Kennedy family from practicing its Catholicism, and the Kennedys now intend to ask the Supreme Court to restore their First Amendment right to the free exercise of religion.
Their case could become one of the most consequential in our nation's history. The issue: Will the most fundamental liberty of all--freedom of conscience--survive in post-Obama America?
John Kennedy serves as president of Autocam and Autocam Medical, Michigan-based companies that produce automobile components and medical devices. He and his family own the companies, which employ 661 people in the United States.
The Kennedys strive to live all parts of their lives--including their business lives--in keeping with their Catholic faith.
"We're called into different vocations or different occupations," Kennedy told me in an interview this week, "but we are supposed to respond to that call and try to basically show the teachings of Jesus Christ in everything we do."
"You have an obligation to treat everyone justly, and, in my mind, you are supposed to treat all people that you come across in life as part of your family," said Kennedy.
